Abstract
A method for reliable computation of a program P includes generating, by a verifier, a public verification key vkp and a public evaluation key (ekp), both on a basis of the program P, providing, by the verifier, a number N at random and sending the number N to the at least one provider, producing, by the at least one provider, at least one output Si concatenated with N and producing a signature Σi over a corresponding input into the at least one provider and/or corresponding data within the at least one provider, both the input and/or the data signed under a secret key ski, so that a pair of output and signature (Si, Σi) is transmitted to the computing unit. The verifier verifies the proof πy using the public verification key vkp and rejects y, if the proof verification fails.
