    Abstract: A system for supporting Enhanced Privacy Identification (EPID) is provided. The system may include a host processor operable to communicate with a remote requestor, where the host processor needs to perform signature revocation checking in accordance with EPID. To perform signature revocation checking, the host processor has to perform either a sign or verify operation. The host processor may offload the sign/verify operation onto one or more associated hardware acceleration coprocessors. A programmable coprocessor may be dynamically configured to perform the desired number of sign/verify functions in accordance with the requirements of the current workload.
