A number of solutions to GKE problem have been proposed but most of them are not scalable and require a number of rounds linear with the number of group members. We present a method of constructing constant-round and identity-based protocol via secret sharing for GKE within universally composability UC framework. The resultant protocol focuses on round efficiency and three rounds of communication are required. The protocol allows the batch verification of messages signed by all other group participants. Moreover compared with other identity-based protocols the key generation center KGC in our protocol is not always online. Copyright 2008 Chunjie Cao et al.

INTRODUCTION In many modern group-oriented and distributed applications such as distributed simulation multiuser games and collaborative tools scalable and reliable group communication is one of the critical problems. .
