Families of genus 2 curves with small embedding degree

In cryptographic applications, hyperelliptic curves of small genus have the advantage of providing a group of comparable size to that of elliptic curves, while working over a field of smaller size. Pairing-friendly hyperelliptic curves are those for which the order of the Jacobian is divisible by a...
