Title:
A comparison of MNT curves and supersingular curves
Authors: D. Page, N. P. Smart, F. Vercauteren
Abstract:We compare both the security and performance issues related to the
choice of MNT curves against supersingular curves in characteristic three,
for pairing based systems.
We pay particular attention to equating the relevant security levels and
comparing not only computational performance and bandwidth performance.
The paper focuses on the BLS signature scheme and the Boneh–Franklin
encryption scheme, but a similar analysis can be applied to many other
pairing based schemes.
