The multiplication operations in GF(2m) fields are widely used in cryptosystems. However, the multiplication operations for public-key cryptosystems require very large operands with 512 bits or more, and then existing multipliers are not available for such multiplications. In this paper, we will present a partition algorithm to divide large operands into small operands such as 32 bits or 64 bits, and then existing multipliers can be employed. We also present a parallel version of the partition algorithm by employing an important natural property of the multiplication operations in GF(2m) fields.
