SmartCards programming...

[khaalel <khaalel () gmail com>]

Hello,

I have to achieve a technical project for my french high school... And the
subject is about cryptography and smart cards...
The goal is to write the programs and all the associated stuff... in order
to create a  DRM-like system: when an user enter his card, a software check
his key (or certificate or...) and if  the authentication succeed, the
wanted file (document, video, audio...) is open by the software...
Yesterday I bought a programmer/writer : the Infinity USB but I wanna know
if someone could give me some interresting links about smart card
programming (java, basic, .....). I already know some things about
cryptography but I am a newbie in smart card programming. Wich language I
have to learn? Which type of smart cards I have to buy? Which algorithms I
can use (DES, RSA, Elliptic Curves, AES...)??

thanks...
khaalel
