....and for implementors due to the advantages that they offer in hardware and on some RISC processors. The literature on these is quite extensive so we just refer the reader to [7] or [13] for more details. Optimized Extension Fields These fields have been proposed by Bailey and Paar in [5] and [6]. They appear to offer a number of advantages which we shall outline below. An Optimized Extension Field (OEF) is one of the form ffl p = 2 k Sigma c is a pseudo Mersenne prime with log 2 c k=2 and such that p fits into a computer word. ffl f(x) x n Gamma is irreducible. For ....
....which even provides a performance advantage for polynomial multiplication for very small degree polynomials. Finally inversion is particularly easy since one can use a technique due to Itoh and Tsujii [12] combined with an efficient method to compute the action of the Frobenius mapping, see [6] for more details on this. It should be noted that the technique of Weil descent which is described in [10] could be applied to curves defined over OEFs, since n is typcially small. However the resulting curve does not seem to have the nice properties that one observes in the even characteristic ....

....by the logical values 0 and 1 . For these types of fields, both software implementations and hardware architectures have been studied extensively. In recent years, GF(p TM) fields, where p is odd, have gained interest in the research community. MihElescu [28] and independently Bailey and Paar [3, 4] introduced the concept of Optimal Extension Fields (OEFs) in the context of elliptic curve cryptography. OEFs are fields GF(p TM) where 9 is odd and both 9 and m are chosen to match the particular hardware used to perform the arithmetic, thus allowing for efficient field arithmetic. The treatment ....

OEFs are fields GF(p TM) where 9 is odd and both 9 and m are chosen to match the particular hardware used to perform the arithmetic, thus allowing for efficient field arithmetic. The treatment in [4, 28] and that of other works based on OEFs has only been concerned with efficient software implementations. In [21, 32] GF(p TM) fields are proposed for cryptographic purposes where 9 is relatively small. 21] describes an implementation of ECDSA over fields of characteristic 3 and 7. The author in ....

....the authors achieve an ECC performance of 1.95 msec on a 400 MHz Pentium II. A rump session presentation in [20] introduces an efficient algorithm for exponentiation in an OEF which leads to efficient implementation of cryptosystems based on the finite field discrete logarithm problem. Reference [3] introduces the Itoh Tsujii inversion algorithm for OEFs which is used in this contribution. In [21] Naccache and M Rahi provide an overview of smart cards with cryptographic capabilities, including a discussion of general implementation concerns on various types of smart cards.

INVERSION Inversion in the OEF is performed via a modification of the Itoh Tsujii algorithm [14] as shown in [3], which reduces the problem of extension field inversion to subfield inversion. The algorithm computes an inverse in GF (p 17 ) as A 1 = A r ) 1 A r 1 where r = p 17 1) p 1) 11 . 10 p . Algorithm 1.3 shows the details of this method. A key point is that A r # GF (p) ....
