Abstract :
Silvio Macili (see Crypto´92, p.113-38, 1992) put forward fair cryptosystems and made a further discussion about this cryptosystem in detail (see Technical Report TR-579.b, MIT, November 1993). As a practical and practicable fair cryptosystem, the efficiency and fairness of Macili´s scheme need some additional considerations, such as the complexity of key reconstruction can be reduced and the method of time-bounded eavesdropping needs some improvement. Accordingly, a modified fair cryptosystem is proposed in this paper to solve these questions
