Abstract. Dedicated hash functions are cryptographically secure compression functions which are designed specifically for hashing. They intend to form a practical alternative for ...
Abstract. This paper reconsiders the established Merkle-Damg˚ard design principle for iterated hash functions. The internal state size w of an iterated n-bit hash function is trea...
Abstract. We present two (related) dedicated hash functions that deliberately borrow heavily from the block ciphers that appeared in the final stages of the AES process. We explor...

Collision resistant hash functions are an important basic tool for cryptographic applications such as digital signature schemes and integrity protection based on "fingerprinti...
