Abstract

The present invention relates to various methods and apparatus for obtaining a parameter J.sub.0 that is used in modular computations using the Montgomery method. The parameter J.sub.0 is defined by the formula (J.sub.0 *N.sub.0 +1)mod 2.sup.Bt =0, Bt being the working base in which the Montgomery method is carried out, and N.sub.0 being the Bt least significant bits of a modulo N used in the Montgomery method.
