Abstract
This paper compares the efficiency of various algorithms
for implementing public key encryption scheme RLCE
on 64-bit CPUs. By optimizing various algorithms for polynomial
and matrix operations over finite fields, we obtained several
interesting (or even surprising) results.
For example, it is well known (e.g., Moenck 1976) that
Karatsuba\u27s algorithm outperforms classical polynomial multiplication
algorithm from the degree 15 and above (practically, Karatsuba\u27s algorithm only
outperforms classical polynomial multiplication
algorithm from the degree 35 and above ). Our experiments
show that 64-bit optimized Karatsuba\u27s algorithm will only
outperform 64-bit optimized classical polynomial multiplication
algorithm for polynomials of degree 115 and above over finite field
GF(210). The second interesting (surprising) result shows
that 64-bit optimized Chien\u27s search algorithm ourperforms all other 64-bit optimized
polynomial root finding algorithms such as BTA and FFT for polynomials
of all degrees over finite field GF(210). The third interesting (surprising)
result shows that 64-bit optimized Strassen matrix multiplication algorithm
only outperforms 64-bit optimized classical matrix multiplication algorithm
for matrices of dimension 750 and above over finite field
GF(210). It should be noted that existing literatures
and practices recommend Strassen matrix multiplication
algorithm for matrices of dimension 40 and above.
All experiments are done on a 64-bit MacBook Pro with i7 CPU with a single thread.
The reported results should be
appliable to 64 or larger bits CPU. For 32 or smaller bits CPUs, these results may not
be applicable. The source code
and library for the algorithms covered in this paper will be available at http://quantumca.org/
