We introduce the concept of regular super-functions at a fixed point. It is derived from the concept of regular iteration. A super-function F of h is a solution of F(z+1)=h(F(z)). ...
We define the weight of an integer N to be the smallest w such that N can be represented as w i=1 i2ci , with 1,..., w{1,-1}. Since arithmetic modulo a prime of low weight is parti...
Tweakable enciphering schemes are length preserving block cipher modes of operation that provide a strong pseudo-random permutation. It has been suggested that these schemes can b...
The ability to store vast quantities of data and the emergence of high speed networking have led to intense interest in distributed data mining. However, privacy concerns, as well ...
We describe Instruction-Set Randomization (ISR), a general approach for safeguarding systems against any type of code-injection attack. We apply Kerckhoffs' principle to creat...
