X Abstract

We introduce a novel amortization technique for computation of consecutive pre-images of hash chains, given knowledge of the seed. While all previously known techniques have a memory-times-computational complexity of O(n) per chain element, the complexity of our technique can be upper bounded at O(log<sup>2</sup> n), making it a useful primitive for low-cost applications such as authentication, signatures and micro-payments.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
