We study the space-and-time automaton-complexity of two related problems concerning the cycle length of a periodic stream of input bits. One problem is to find the exact cycle length of a periodic stream of input bits provided that the cycle length is bounded by a known parameter n. The other problem is to find a large number k that divides the cycle length. By “large” we mean that there is an ...

This paper presents novel hardware implementation of modified RC4 stream cipher for wireless network security. The Modified RC4 algorithm proposes two changes in conventional RC4 stream cipher algorithm, one in Key Scheduling Algorithm (KSA) stage and other in Pseudorandom Generation Algorithm (PRGA) stage. This modification in KSA removed many weakness and produces random states, so that it wi...

since direct experimental evidence is not available, this must be verified through a modeling approach, providedadequate data be available. many statistical methods are used to study the relation between independent anddependent variables.this research was carried out at the western part of jazmurian basin tlocated in the southeast ofiran. in this paperused ten physical characteristics such as ...

Stream-dwelling species in the U.S. southern Appalachian Mountains region are particularly vulnerable to climate change and acidification. The objectives of this study were to quantify the spatial extent of contemporary suitable habitat for acid- and thermally sensitive aquatic species and to forecast future habitat loss resulting from expected temperature increases on national forest lands in ...

We measured larval growth rates of 2 dominant stream detritivore groups to assess the mechanism underlying declines in invertebrate production following exclusion of terrestrial litter inputs to a forested headwater stream. Larval Tallaperla spp. (Plecoptera:Peltoperlidae) were chosen as representative shredders and non-Tanypodinae Chironomidae (Diptera) were selected as representative collecto...
