Abstract

With publicly verifiable computation (PVC) development, users with limited resources prefer to outsource computing tasks to cloud servers. However, existing PVC schemes are mainly proposed for cloud computing scenarios, which brings bandwidth consumption or network delay of IoT devices in edge computing. In addition, dishonest edge servers may reduce resource utilization by returning unreliable results. Therefore, we propose a revocable publicly verifiable computation(RPVC) scheme for edge computing. On the one hand, RPVC ensures that users can verify the correct results at a small cost. On the other hand, it can revoke the computing abilities of dishonest edge servers. First, polynomial commitments are employed to reduce proofs’ length and generation speed. Then, we improve revocable group signature by knowledge signatures and subset covering theory. This makes it possible to revoke dishonest edge servers. Finally, theoretical analysis proves that RPVC has correctness and security, and experiments evaluate the efficiency of RPVC.
