Abstract

The process of selection is omnipresent in the real world and modeling this process as a cryptologic protocol will enable cross use of techniques among similar protocol applications, which will eventually lead to better understanding and refinement of these applications. We present a proposal for a specialised selection protocol with anonymity as the security service. An area for its application is anonymous peer review, where no peer should know the identity of the reviewer.
