摘要: We present a software implementation of arithmetic operations in finite field GF(2n), based on an alternative representation the elements. An important application is elliptic curve crypto-systems. Whereas previously reported implementations cryptosystems use standard basis or optimal normal to perform operations, we represent elements as polynomials with coefficients smaller GF(216). Calculations this are carried out using pre-calculated lookup tables. This results rather simple routines matching structure computer memory very well. The irreducible trinomial polynomial, was proposed at Crypto'95 by R. Schroeppel et al., can be extended representation. In our implementation, resulting slightly faster than routines.
