==== Alice, Bob, Eve all on separate networks ==== The first course of testing was done where Alice, Bob and Eve were all on separate networks. This was the simplest test to conduct, as well as the simplest situation in theory. If we examine the situation, we realise that the variation in the round trip times observed by Alice, Bob and Eve is going to be reasonably high. This is due to the fact that every leg of the trip is done over an imperfect, noisy communication channel. The variation in the round trip times means that the protocol operates under the best circumstances. Consider a scenario, the worst case scenario, where there is no variation or noise in the channel, this would mean that the round trip times observed by all three parties would be the same, and the protocol would not function. This is the opposite of that scenario. The results are shown below. The test results can be found on [[Timing Based Encryption: Test Case 1]]
