Abstract
Summary form only given as follows. The architecture of a coprocessor for smart cards is introduced. Its addition to the smart card 8 bit CPU makes public key cryptographic algorithms practical. The performance increases by a factor from 50 to 60 or more. This new family of smart cards paves the way for numerous highly secure applications and for public-key cryptography applications. These cards allow fast signature computations and also permit practical zero-knowledge protocols like A. Fiat, A. Shamir (1986) and L.C. Guillou, J.J. Quisquater (1988). Applications in the medical world, for the pay-TV and for electronic money are also presented.
