Abstract
A processing device for federated learning, including: a modular exponentiation module including at least one modular exponentiation engine; a pre-processing module for providing operations corresponding to a plurality of operator modes; a montgomerization module for providing montgomerization operations; a confusion calculation module for providing modular multiplication operations in montgomery space; a montgomery reduction module for providing montgomery reduction operations; and a controller for determining, according to an input operator mode, whether to enable at least two modules out of the pre-processing module, the montgomerization module, the confusion calculation module, and the montgomery reduction module, so as for cooperatively performing the input operator mode together with the modular exponentiation module.
