The proliferation of all kinds of devices with different security requirements and constraints, and the arms-race nature of the security problem are increasingly demanding the de...
Abstract. One of the most basic requirements concerning Boolean functions used in cryptosystems is that they must have high algebraic degrees. This simple criterion is not always w...
We develop an improved cost function to be used in simulated annealing followed by hill-climbing to find Boolean functions satisfying multiple desirable criteria such as high nonli...
