Private Information Retrieval (PIR) schemes allow a client to retrieve any file of interest, while hiding the file identity from the database servers. In contrast to most existing PIR schemes that assume honest-but-curious servers, we study…

Private information retrieval (PIR) is a privacy setting that allows a user to download a required message from a set of messages stored in a system of databases without revealing the index of the required message to the databases. PIR was…

In the private information retrieval (PIR) problem a user wishes to retrieve, as efficiently as possible, one out of $K$ messages from $N$ non-communicating databases (each holds all $K$ messages) while revealing nothing about the identity…

In the classical model for (information theoretically secure) Private Information Retrieval (PIR), a user wishes to retrieve one bit of a database that is stored on a set of $n$ servers, in such a way that no individual server gains…

Suppose there are $N$ distributed databases each storing a full set of $M$ independent files. A user wants to retrieve $r$ out of the $M$ files without revealing the identity of the $r$ files. When $r=1$ it is the classic problem of private…

In Private Information Retrieval (PIR), one wants to download a file from a database without revealing to the database which file is being downloaded. Much attention has been paid to the case of the database being encoded across several…

We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) over a distributed storage system. The storage system consists of $N$ non-colluding databases, each storing a coded version of $M$ messages. In the PIR problem, the user wishes…
