Abstract :
This paper provides a new design methodology to improve the efficiency of a parallel dual core cryptoprocessor for computing pairings over Barreto Naehrig (BN) curves. The proposed design is specifically optimized for Field Programmable Gate Array Platforms(FPGA). We explore the inbuilt features of an FPGA device to improve the efficiency of a cryptoprocessor for computing 128-bit secure pairings.
