We explore ways to reduce the number of bit operations required to implement AES. One way involves optimizing the composite field approach for entire rounds of AES. Another way is integrating the Galois multiplications of MixColumns with the linear transformations of the S-box. Combined with careful optimizations, these reduce the number of bit operations to encrypt one block by 9.0%, compared ...

Let x t, . . . , X, be variables which together constitute a composite register. These variables are shared by a number of processes which operate in a totally asynchronous and wait-free manner. An operation by a process on the composite register is either a write to one of the variables or a read of the values of all variables. All operations are required to be atomic, i.e. an execution of any...

A special Genetic Algorithm (GA) with simplex optimization method is proposed for the problem of selecting an optimal cloud service composition plan from a lot of composite plans on the basis of some global Quality-ofService (QoS) constraints. In this GA, some Simplex Method (SM) operations and a fitness function are provided. The design of the SM operations is made in the light of the characte...

A programming environment combines elementary operations into single composite operations to be applied by the user. The operands of the composite operation may be decomposed, their components processed by elementary operations, the results combined in arbitrary ways and manipulated by other elementary operations, and a final product delivered to the user. If one of the elementary operations de...

In this paper, we learn to discover composite operators and features that are synthesized from combinations of primitive image processing operations for object detection. Our approach is based on genetic programming (GP). The motivation for using GP-based learning is that we hope to automate the design of object detection system by automatically synthesizing object detection procedures from pri...

Currently, composition of web services is done by orchestration. An orchestration is a workflow that combines invocations of individual operations of the web services involved. It is therefore a composition of individual operations, rather than a composition of entire web services. In this paper we propose a different approach to web service composition, whereby entire services are composed int...

The present study investigates the relationships and parameter interactions between three controllable variables (lamp current, pulse frequency and air pressure) on hole taper in micro-drilling operations, in order to assess the effect of the different process parameters and also material properties in laser micro-drilling operations. Micro-drilling experiments have been conducted for Gamma-Tit...

In this paper, we propose a schema version model which allows to restructure complex object hierarchy in object-oriented databases. This model extends a schema version model, called RiBS, which is based on the concept of Rich Base Schema. In the RiBS model, each schema version is in the form of updatable class hierarchy view over one base schema, called the RiBS layer, which has richer schema i...
