Abstract:

Abstract. Binary Linking Schemes (BLS) for digital time-stamping [3] provide (1) relative temporal authentication to be performed in logarithmic time, and (2) time-certi cates of reasonable size, which together with the data published in a widely available medium enable the veri er to establish their relative temporal positions, even if the database held by the Time-Stamping Service (TSS) ceases to exist. We showthat the size of a time-certi cate (X) of a document X in the scheme presented in [3] is bounded by 4 log N where k is the output size of the hash 2 function and N is the number of time-stamps issued. We then present
