On implementation of the meet-in-the-middle attack by means ofparallel computations | Prikladnaya Diskretnaya Matematika - Applied Discrete Mathematics. 2011. № 3(13).

Three variants of implementationof the meet-in-the-middle attack based on clusters and distributed computationsare considered for symmetric block cryptosystems. The average time of computationsis estimated on the universal supposition of cryptosystem key equiprobability. It is shownthat the reduction of the calculation time is proportional to the number of processors inthe system.
