of following the proposed procedure: • The user acquires all and only the phrase table entries required to perform the decoding of a specific file, thus avoiding complete transfer of the TM to the user; • The owner of the PT does not learn anything about what is being translated, thus satisfying the user's confidentiality constraints; • The owner of the PT can track the number of phrase-table entries that was downloaded by the user.
