Peer2PIR : PIR Evaluation

This repository contains the code for evaluating PIR protocols in the literature.

Requirements

• Docker
• Python 3

Usage

Our code runs PIR protocols:

• SealPIR
• FastPIR
• OnionPIR
• Spiral (and variants)
• RLWEPIR (our work)

The evaluation is done in a Docker container. The code captures the results and processses them into a CSV file. We capture two metrics, the server runtime and the total communication cost. The code captures the results and processes them into a CSV file. The following command will run the evaluation and produce the results:

1. Select the desired number of rows and payload sizes in run.py (line 253 and 254)
2. Run ./run-exp to start the evaluation (which might take a while). The results will be logged in the logs directory.
3. Run the code in plot.ipynb to plot the results and generate the csv file of the results.
