+ Pairing-based cryptography is a relatively young area of cryptography
+ that revolves around a certain function with special properties.

+ The PBC (Pairing-Based Cryptography) library is a free C library
+ (released under the GNU Lesser General Public License) built on the GMP
+ library that performs the mathematical operations underlying
+ pairing-based cryptosystems.
