Abstract

Cachin et al. and Algesheimer et al. proposed schemes using secure function evaluation for protecting mobile agents in untrusted environments. One of essential ingredients of their protocols is oblivious transfer (although not all of them require it). Unfortunately, naive application of oblivious transfer is inefficient because it must be performed for each bit of encrypted circuit inputs. Therefore, in this paper we propose secure mobile agent protocols with emphasis on efficient oblivious transfer suitable for secure function evaluation.
