Pre-computation involves performing certain calculations or data processing steps in advance, before the results are actually needed, to save time during subsequent, critical operations. This strategy is employed to reduce latency or computational load at the point of use by preparing necessary data or intermediate results beforehand. It optimizes overall system performance. It prepares calculations in advance.
Context
In cryptographic systems, particularly those used in blockchain technology like zero-knowledge proofs, pre-computation is often utilized to accelerate the generation of proofs or to set up complex cryptographic parameters. This technique allows for more efficient on-chain verification by shifting heavy computational work off-chain. It is a key method for improving the scalability of decentralized networks. This enhances blockchain efficiency.
This new cryptographic primitive decouples intensive signature generation from constant-size verification, securing resource-constrained blockchain participation.
