Nigel Smart (cryptographer)
Nigel Smart is a professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Bristol and a current holder of the Royal Society-Wolfson Research Merit Award.
He is best known for his work in Elliptic curve cryptography, especially work on the ECDLP.[1][2][3] He has also worked on Pairing-based cryptography contributing a number of algorithms such as the SK-KEM[4] and the Ate-pairing[5]
