Title
A Fair Protocol for Signing Contracts (Extended Abstract)
Abstract
Assume that two parties, A and B, want to sign a contract over a communication network, i.e. they want to exchange their “commitments“ to the contract. We consider a contract signing protocol to be fair if, at any stage in its execution, the following hold: the conditional probability that party A obtains B's signature to the contract given that B has obtained A's signature to the contract, is close to 1. (Symmetrically, when switching the roles of A and B).
