Merkle tree
hash tree

A torrent file using Merkle trees does not have a key in the list.

In the Merkle Tree the hash values are the leaves of a binary tree, so that .

"Fractal merkle tree representation and traversal".

This checksumming continues all the way up the file system's data hierarchy to the root node, which is also checksummed, thus creating a Merkle tree.

With this in mind, Merkle tree hash structures exploit full potential of such hardware while being appropriate for current uni/dual core architectures.

BEP-0030 extends BitTorrent to support Merkle trees.

To facilitate this without breaking the block's hash, transactions are hashed in a Merkle tree, with only the root included in the block's hash.

The design of Merkle tree is based on the claims from Intel describing the future of hardware processors with tens and thousands of cores instead of the conventional uni-core systems.

The Merkle signature scheme is a digital signature scheme based on hash trees (also called Merkle trees) and one-time signatures such as the Lamport signature scheme.

"Merkle Signature Schemes, Merkle Trees and Their Cryptanalysis", seminar 'Post Quantum Cryptology' at the Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany.

Other digital signature schemes were soon developed after RSA, the earliest being Lamport signatures, Merkle signatures (also known as "Merkle trees" or simply "Hash trees"), and Rabin signatures.

Efficient Use of Merkle Trees - RSA labs explanation of the original purpose of Merkle trees: To handle many Lamport one-time signatures.

He co-invented the Merkle-Hellman knapsack cryptosystem, invented cryptographic hashing (now called the Merkle-Damgård construction based on a pair of articles published 10 years later that established the security of the scheme), and invented Merkle trees.

For example, Fossil uses hash trees to store large files.

Suggestions have been made to use hash trees in trusted computing systems.

There are several additional tricks, benefits and details regarding hash trees.

We call the path in the hash tree from to the root .

It is a refined version of the more general notion of a hash tree.

The corresponding leaf of the hash tree to a one-time public key is .

The structure is similar to a hash tree, but with additional data at the nodes as well as the leaves.

With these hash values a hash tree is built.

But combined with hash trees they can be used for many messages and then become a fairly efficient digital signature scheme.

In computer science, hash tree may refer to:

The hash chains can then be extracted as from any hash tree.

Binary hash chains are commonly used in association with a Hash tree.

Hash trees can be used to verify any kind of data stored, handled and transferred in and between computers.

The Tiger tree hash is a widely used form of hash tree.

A hash tree with 8 leaf nodes and a hash calendar after 7 seconds.

A hash calendar after 31 seconds consists of 5 disjoint hash trees.

Hash trees are useful because they allow efficient and secure verification of the contents of larger data structures.

A hash list is usually sufficient for most needs, but a more advanced form of the concept is a hash tree.

According to the security needs, user can choose the value of , that is the number of parallel hash trees in Badger.

Apriori uses breadth-first search and a Hash tree structure to count candidate item sets efficiently.

Hash trees are a generalisation of hash lists and hash chains.

If the hashed file is very big, such a hash tree or hash list becomes fairly big.

Support for merkle hash tree torrents.

When the top hash is available, the hash tree can be received from any non-trusted source, like any peer in the p2p network.

If the hash tree only needs to protect against unintentional damage, much less secure checksums such as CRCs can be used.
