the main goal of the present study was to implement a hybrid pattern of cellular automata model and particle swarm optimization algorithm based on tm and etm+ imagery of landsat satellite from 1988 to 2010 for simulating the urban sprawling. in this study, an alternative model was implemented in two ways: the first method was based on two images (1988 and 2010) and the second one was based on t...

In this work, pseudorandom sequence generators based on finite fields have been analyzed from the point of view of their cryptographic application. In fact, a class of nonlinear sequence generators has been modelled in terms of linear cellular automata. The algorithm that converts the given generator into a linear model based on automata is very simple and is based on the concatenation of a bas...

Structural properties of two well-known families of keystream generators, Shrinking Generators and Cellular Automata, have been analyzed. Emphasis is on the equivalence of the binary sequences obtained from both kinds of generators. In fact, Shrinking Generators (SG) can be identified with a subset of linear Cellular Automata (mainly rule 90, rule 150 or a hybrid combination of both rules). The...

In this paper we analyze the behavior of linear multiple attractor cellular automata having two-predecessors.

the full adders (fas) constitute the essential elements of digital systems, in a sense that they affect the circuit parameters of such systems. with respect to the mosfet restrictions, its replacement by new devices and technologies is inevitable. qca is one of the accomplishments in nanotechnology nominated as the candidate for mosfet replacement. in this article 4 new layouts are presented fo...

Cellular automata (CA) are discrete dynamical systems consist of a regular finite grid of cell; each cell encapsulating an equal portion of the state, and arranged spatially in a regular fashion to form an n-dimensional lattice. A cellular automata is like computers, data represented by initial configurations which is processed by time evolution to produce output. This paper is an empirical stu...

Cryptographic schemes using one-dimensional, three-neighbor cellular automata as a primitive have been put forth since at least 1985. Early results showed good statistical pseudorandomness, and the simplicity of their construction made them a natural candidate for use in cryptographic applications. Since those early days of cellular automata, research in the field of cryptography has developed ...

This paper deals with descriptive complexity of picture languages of any dimension by syntactical fragments of existential second-order logic. Two classical classes of picture languages are studied: The class of recognizable picture languages, i.e. projections of languages defined by local constraints (or tilings): it is known as the most robust class extending the class of regular languages to...
