摘要

To efficiently determine intermediate data for use with an aggregate function while keeping confidentiality, a bit decomposition unit generates a share of a bit string by bit decomposition and concatenation of key attributes. A group sort generation unit generates a share of a first permutation, which performs a stable sort of the bit string in ascending order. A bit string sorting unit generates a share of a sorted bit string obtained by sorting the bit string with the first permutation. A flag generation unit generates a share of a flag indicating a boundary between groups. A key aggregate sort generation unit generates a share of a second permutation, which performs a stable sort of the negation of the flag in ascending order. A de-duplication unit generates shares of de-duplicated key attributes. A key sorting unit generates shares of sorted key attributes by sorting the de-duplicated key attributes.
