On the design of a key-lock-pair mechanism in information protection systems (Q1090472)

We propose a new Key-Lock-Pair (KLP for short) mechanism based upon the Chinese Remainder Theorem that implements a single-key-lock system. Our method is inspired by Wu and Hwang's method. Using our method, the representations of keys and locks are shorter and simpler. Moreover, faster operations and easier constructions of keys and locks are also achieved.
