Victor S. Miller (b. 3 March, 1947 in Brooklyn, New York, USA) is an American mathematician at the Center for Communications Research of the Institute for Defense Analyses in Princeton, NJ, USA. He received his A.B. in mathematics from Columbia University in 1968, and his Ph.D. in mathematics from Harvard University in 1975. He was a researcher at the Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, NY from 1978 through 1993, and since 1993 has been at CCR. His main areas of interest are in Computational Number Theory, Combinatorics, Data Compression and Cryptography. He is one of the co-inventors of Elliptic Curve Cryptography.^[1] He is also one of the co-inventors, with Mark Wegman of the LZW data compression algorithm, and various extensions, one of which is used in the V.42bis international modem standard ^[2] and ^[3].
