In the past two years there have been several advances in Number Field Sieve (NFS) algorithms for computing discrete logarithms in finite fields Fpnwhere p is prime and n>1 is a small integer. This article presents a concise overview of these algorithms and discusses some of the challenges with assessing their impact on keylengths for pairing-based cryptosystems.
