The differential power analysis (DPA) is a powerful attack against the implementation of cryptographic schemes on mobile devices. This paper proposes an alternative DPA using the addresses of registers of elliptic curve based cryptosystems (ECC) implemented on smart cards. We call the analysis the address-bit DPA in this paper. The analysis was originally investigated by Messerges, Dabbish and ...

Dual-polarized antenna (DPA) systems can provide two independent data transmissions in line-of-sight wireless channel environments. The capacity of each data stream can be affected by a rotation angle between transmitter and receiver DPAs and channel gains of vertical and horizontal receiver antennas. In this paper, we propose a user selection scheme for the DPA system. In the proposed scheme, ...

Delayed gate fluorescence detection of dipicolinic acid (DPA), a universal and specific component of bacterial spores, has been appraised for use in a rapid analytical method for the detection of low concentrations of bacterial spores. DPA was assayed by fluorimetric detection of its chelates with lanthanide metals. The influence of the choice and concentration of lanthanide and buffer ions on ...

Cotton (Gossypium) fiber is the most prevalent natural product used in the textile industry. The two major cultivated species, G. hirsutum (Gh) and G. barbadense (Gb), are allotetraploids with contrasting fiber quality properties. To better understand the molecular basis for their fiber differences, EST pyrosequencing was used to document the fiber transcriptomes at two key development stages, ...

All forms of chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH) are characterized by structural remodeling of the pulmonary artery (PA) media, a process previously attributed solely to changes in the phenotype of resident smooth muscle cells (SMC). However, recent experimental evidence in both systemic and pulmonary circulations suggests that other cell types, including circulating and local progenitors, cont...

One of the most common features in the metamorphism of diverse biological systems is the conversion of these systems into a quiescent, dormant state. Although the properties of these dormant states have in general been well described (inert or weak metabolic activity and resistance to external chemical and physical factors), there is relatively little information on the internal regulatory mech...

E2F transcription factors are required for the progression and arrest of the cell cycle in animals. Like animals, plants have evolved to conserve the E2F family. The Arabidopsis genome encodes E2F and DP proteins that share a high similarity with the animal E2F and DP families. Here, we show that Arabidopsis E2F and DP proteins are not predominantly localized to the nucleus in analyses with gre...

A novel type of pH-responsive biodegradable copolymer was developed based on methyloxy-poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly[dopamine-2-(dibutylamino) ethylamine-l-glutamate] (mPEG-b-P(DPA-DE)LG) and applied to act as an intelligent nanocarrier system for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The mPEG-b-P(DPA-DE)LG copolymer was synthesized by a typical ring opening polymerization of N-carboxyanhydrides...

Profiling power attacks like Template attack and Stochastic attack optimize their performance by jointly evaluating the leakages of multiple sample points. However, such multivariate approaches are rare among non-profiling Differential Power Analysis (DPA) attacks, since integration of the leakage of a higher SNR sample point with the leakage of lower SNR sample point might result in a decrease...
