Research Interests
Cryptographic engineering, algorithms and architectures for
computer arithmetic and finite fields, parallel algebraic and
numerical computation, and network security.
Security and Cryptography
Design and implementation of public-key cryptosystems,
digital signatures, message digest functions, secret-key
cryptographic algorithms, interactive computation protocols,
and secure multiparty computations.
Optimization and performance evaluation of cryptographic libraries.
Applications of cryptography in communication, computation,
software distribution, and electronic commerce.
Information Security Laboratory
Research activities in security and cryptography are performed
within the Information Security
Laboratory (ISL) which is an organization of faculty and graduate
student efforts among the Electrical & Computer Engineering, Computer
Science, and Mathematics departments at Oregon State University.
Dr. Çetin K. Koç is the founder and director of the ISL.
Computer Arithmetic and Finite Fields
Design and implementation of fast algorithms and
hardware structures for modular arithmetic and Galois field operations.
Algorithms for multiplication, division, inverse, exponentiation, greatest
common divisor, Chinese remaindering, primality testing and factoring,
finite field, and elliptic curve point operations.
High-Speed Computing
High-speed and parallel computation of algebraic and
arithmetic functions. Algorithms and fast hardware
architectures for algebraic, arithmetic, and
symbolic computation.
