Summary: 
Maurer and Yacobi proposed an ID-Based key distribution scheme in 1991. In this scheme, the private key for each user is generated by solving discrete logarithm problem. We examine the realizability of this scheme. We show that this scheme can be practical by appropriate parameter setting.
