<p>A method of digital signature for generating a digital signature A that uses a private key d for a message M in which k pieces of numerical information u1 - uk satisfying d = f1(u1, u2, ..., uk) are distributed into and retained by k computers; with regard to each computer of the k computers, a piece of numerical information ui (1 ≤ i ≤ k) retained by itself, a piece of numerical information si generated by itself, and information obtained from pieces of numerical information generated respectively by the computers other than itself by themselves, are made to act on the message M, by that computer, to generate a partial signature ai on the message M; and partial signatures ai - ak generated respectively by the k computers are used to generate the digital signature A that uses the private key d for the message M. <IMAGE></p> |
