Thanks to Jean-Jacques Quisquater and Jean-Fran=E7ois Misarsky
we offer Sarah Flannery's September 1999 paper on the Cayley-Purser=20
Algorithm and her comparison of it to the security and speed of RSA:
http://cryptome.org/flannery-cp.htm
She concludes that Cayley-Purser is as secure as RSA and some
twenty-two times faster. She describes a successful attack on C-P.
We have converted excerpts to HTML. Eighteen images of the
17-page paper by Quisquater, heavily loaded with equations, tables=20
and graphs:
