A hierarchical access control scheme based on Lagrange interpolation for mobile agents

The mobile agent is functioning as an information exchanger with hosts. In order to reduce the communication time that the host sent to the members of a large system. This article proposes to use a function defined by Lagrange polynomial to compute decryption key. Each host will be given a decryptio...

description The mobile agent is functioning as an information exchanger with hosts. In order to reduce the communication time that the host sent to the members of a large system. This article proposes to use a function defined by Lagrange polynomial to compute decryption key. Each host will be given a decryption key to access the confidential document by inputting a secret key into an interpolation function which is generated from Lagrange interpolation. Since tasks are done by the mobile agent, the whole process will be performed within a short time period because there is no physical connection between the end devices. The information exchange occurs at the end hosts.
