Secure Client- Server Delegated Computation: Difference between revisions

Delegated Computation is the task of assigning computation on hidden data to a powerful untrusted party (a device) by a weak (in terms of computational powers) party while maintaining privacy of hidden data from the powerful party. Protocols under this functionality are commonly called Client-Server protocols. Delegated Quantum Computation (DQC) protocols involve partially or fully classical Client delegating a quantum computation to fully powerful single/multiple quantum Server/Servers. All DQC protocols involve three main stages, Preparation Stage, Computation Stage and Output Correction Stage. The roles of Client and Server in the different stages may differ according to the type of communication used see Protocols list.
