All Implemented Interfaces:

Callable<BigInteger>

public class ModuloSelectionTask
extends Object
implements Callable<BigInteger>

The ModuloSelectionTask performs the selection of a prime modulo of a given size. It is used to parallelise the time-consuming selection process, as several ModuloSelectionTasks can be invoked simultaneously.
