- Gil, I introduced Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems: see my paper "The Use
- of Elliptic Curves in Cryptography" in CRYPTO '85, Springer LNCS #218.
- There have been a number of other papers about them. You might start
- looking the in the proceedings of the the CRYPTO and EUROCRYPT
- conferences. You also might get in touch with Scott Vanstone
- (savanstone@water.waterloo.edu) whose group at Waterloo actively works
- in that area. He has written a nice survey paper.
