Let MPT (v,λ) denote a maximum packing of triples of order v with index λ and TS (u,λ) denote a triple system of order u with index λ. In this paper, for v≥6, we determine necessary and sufficient condition for enclosing an MPT (v,λ) in a TS (v+m,λ+1) with index λ increased by 1 and minimal increase in extra points.
In key escrow field it is important to solve the problem thatuser's secret key completely depends on the trusted escrow agency. In 1995, some methods of solving the problem were presented. But these methods are no better than that of directly using threshold cryptography. In this paper, we present a common pattern of threshold key escrow scheme based on public key cryptosystem, and a detailed design based on the improved RSA algorithm is given. The above problem is solved by this scheme.
