Suppose Q is a family of discrete memoryless channels. An unknown member of Q will be available, with perfect, causal output feedback for communication. We study a scenario where communication is carried by first testing the channel by means of a training ...
This paper describes several speedups for computation in the order p + 1 subgroup of F*(p2) and the order p2 - p + 1 subgroup of F*(p6). These results are in a way complementary to LUC and XTR, where computations in these g ...
In this paper we show that the Ate pairing, originally defined for elliptic curves, generalises to hyperelliptic curves and in fact to arbitrary algebraic curves. It has the following surprising properties: The loop length in Miller’s algorithm can be up t ...
Burnashev in 1976 gave an exact expression for the reliability function of a discrete memoryless channel (DMC) with noiseless feedback. A coding scheme that achieves this exponent needs, in general, to know the statistics of the channel. Suppose now that t ...
One-dimensional NOE expts. applicable to labeled macromols. are presented which allow the manipulation of specific spin diffusion pathways and thus unambiguously identify clandestine spins through which the direct NOE is mediated. A treatment of spin diffu ...
Suppose Q is a family of discrete memoryless channels. An unknown member of Q is available with perfect (causal) feedback for communication. A recent result (A. Tchamkerten and I.E. Telatar) shows the existence, for certain families of channels (e.g. binar ...
In this paper, quadratic term structure models (QTSMs) are analyzed and characterized in a general Markovian setting. The primary motivation for this work is to find a useful extension of the traditional QTSM, which is based on an Ornstein{Uhlenbeck (OU) s ...
A new semi-empirical model for proton induced SEU is presented. For estimating the energy deposited by the protons in the sensitive volumes of the devices the model uses the measured spectra of surface barrier detectors (SBD) with the same thicknesses of t ...
Recent attacks on standardised hash functions such as SHA1 have reawakened interest in design strategies based on techniques common in provable security. In presenting the VSH hash function, a design based on RSA-like modular exponentiation, the authors in ...
