Abstract

Threshold signature schemes are examples of threshold cryptosystems, as introduced by Desmedt, [4]. The purpose of this paper is to present a rather simple alternative to threshold signatures which raises questions about the value of such schemes, at least when applied to the mobile agent scenario.
