Languages for music audio processing typically offer a large assortment of unit generators. There is great duplication among different language implementations, as each language must implement many of the same (or nearly the same) unit generators. Csound has a large library of unit generators and could be a useful source of reusable unit generators for other languages or for direct use in appli...

It has long been thought that the Internet, and its constituent networks, are hierarchical in nature. Consequently, the network topology generators most widely used by the Internet research community, GT-ITM [7] and Tiers [11], create networks with a deliberately hierarchical structure. However, recent work by Faloutsos et al. [13] revealed that the Internet’s degree distribution — the distribu...

Besides speed and period length, the quality of uniform random number generators is usually assessed by measuring the uniformity of their point sets, formed by taking vectors of successive output values over their entire period length. For F2-linear generators, the commonly adopted measures of uniformity are based on the equidistribution of the most significant bits of the output. In this paper...

Sequential pattern mining first proposed by Agrawal and Srikant has received intensive research due to its wide range applicability in many real-life domains. Various improvements have been proposed which include mining a closed set of sequential patterns. Sequential patterns supported by the same sequences in the database can be considered as belonging to an equivalence class. Each equivalence...

in this article, we introduce monomial irreducible representations of the special linear lie algebra $sln$. we will show that this kind of representations have bases for which the action of the chevalley generators of the lie algebra on the basis elements can be given by a simple formula.

The concept lattice corresponding to a context may be alternatively specified by means of attribute implications. One outstanding problem in formal concept analysis and other areas is the study of the equivalences between a given set of implications and its corresponding basis (notice that there exists a wide range of approaches to basis in the literature). In this work we introduce a method to...

Abst rac t . In this paper a number of binary cyclotomic generators based on cyclotomy are described. A number of cryptographic properties of the generators are controlled. A general approach to control the linear complexity and its stability for periodic sequences over any field is shown. Two bridges between number theory and stream ciphers have been" established, and the relations between the...

The first option here is not easy. Some pieces of data of this kind exist, for example from the decay of radioactive elements, but generally generation is slow and you cannot get the quantity of random numbers you require for modern applications. The second option here is what I’ll talk about today. Algorithms of this type are called “PseudoRandom Number Generators” (PRNGs). Many bad algorithms...
