Package pygar.demo0P

Class DemoZero

java.lang.Object

pygar.demo0P.DemoZero

public class DemoZero
extends java.lang.Object

This class implements a demonstration of Blind Encrypted Data matching on sets of text records. The records are held by two parties called the "Green Team" and the "Blue Team". The two parties desire to keep the records separate but also they need to identify similar records that might be securely exchanged to the mutual benefit of both parties. They employ the services of a "Blind Agent Negotiator" or BAN who conducts and encrypted matching session. The clear text of the secret records never leaves the teams; however, the BAN is able to match encrypted records and supply the accession numbers of the matching records to the teams.

The demonstration employs separate control threads for all three parties as well as a fourth party: the user/observer. The observer gets a control panel to reset the system and start a negotiation session. All four parties are represented by a GUI panel that shows the progress of the negotiation session and allows viewing a sample of the data.

The matching function is defined in the function xcorrelate.
