Abstract :
In this paper, we describe applications of pairing based cryptosystems in GRID computing. In particular, we focus on various signature schemes and describe how efficient authentication mechanisms can be constructed using pairings. The methods described here were originally designed for group environments and therefore we feel that grid infrastructures can greatly benefit from these mechanisms
