Abstract

In this paper we provide a brief summary of our work on privacy-preserving reconciliation protocols. The main focus of the paper is to review two of our two-party protocols. We detail the protocols and provide a comprehensive theoretical performance analysis. Furthermore, we briefly describe some of our work on multi-party protocols. We also show how we have translated our theoretical results into practice—including the design and implementation of a library as well as developing iPhone and Android apps.
