Summary Analysing Greek literary sources together with a selection of preserved ostraka , this article discusses the interrelationships between prevention hybris perceptions tyranny, and purposes practising ostracism in fifth-century Athens. It will be proposed that political decisions to organize ostrakophoriai were reactions threat posed by hybristic disposition an individual – hence, played ...

Male infertility is a reproductive disease, and existing clinical solutions for this condition often involve long and cumbersome sperm sorting methods, including preprocessing and centrifugation-based steps. These methods also fall short when sorting for sperm free of reactive oxygen species, DNA damage, and epigenetic aberrations. Although several microfluidic platforms exist, they suffer from...

This paper presents a fast and compact FPGA based implementation of the Data Encryption Standard (DES) and Triple Data Encryption Standard (TDES) algorithm, widely used in cryptography for securing the Internet traffic. The main objective of this paper is to provide the reader with a deep insight of the theory and design of a digital cryptographic circuit, which was implemented in a Vertex 5 se...

This paper proposes a techniquebased onPhysicalUnclonable Functions (PUFs), obfuscation, and Dynamic Partial Self Reconfiguration (DPSR) to protect partial FPGA configuration bitstreams from cloning and reverse engineering. With the aid of this technique, we are able to do the equivalent of partial bitstream encryption on low-cost FPGAs, which is only featured on high-end FPGAs. Low-cost FPGAs ...

Application programmers in domains like machine learning, scientific computing, and computational biology are accustomed to using powerful, high productivity array languages such as MatLab, R and NumPy. Distributed array frameworks aim to scale array programs across machines. However, maximizing the locality of access to distributed arrays is an unsolved problem; such locality is critical for h...

Security issues are playing dominant role in today’s high speed communication systems. A fast and compact FPGA based implementation of the Data Encryption Standard (DES) and Triple DES algorithm is presented in this paper that is widely used in cryptography for securing the Internet traffic in modern day communication systems. The design of the digital cryptographic circuit was implemented in a...
