Popis: The most efficient contributory group key agreement protocols conduct their operations using a tree-based structure to guide communication and computation. Existing performance comparisons of group key protocols have only evaluated the cost of single operations in isolation. This paper expands this work by evaluating the performance impact of tree rebalancing operations on the overall cost of a group key agreement protocol over the course of the execution of several operations.
