Third generation cellular network technology (3G) can revolutionize communications and data exchanges between many people in a more overwhelming fashion than 2G and 2.5G networks did. The 3G UMTS, the 3G GSM and the 3G GPRS rely on the KASUMI block cipher. Therefore, increasing speed, decreasing power consumption and error detection/correction are the major concerns of the KASUMI algorithm and ...

Nonlinear vibration behavior of beam is an important issue of structural engineering. In this study, a mathematical modeling of a forced nonlinear vibration of Euler-Bernoulli beam resting on nonlinear elastic foundation is presented. The nonlinear vibration behavior of the beam is investigated by using a modified multi-level residue harmonic balance method. The main advantage of the method is ...

We find that the minimum distance of the binary [137; 69] quadratic residue code is 21.

Based on the quadratic residuosity assumption we present a non-interactive crypto-computing protocol for the greater-than function, i.e., a non-interactive procedure between two parties such that only the relation of the parties’ inputs is revealed. In comparison to previous solutions our protocol reduces the number of modular multiplications significantly. We also discuss applications to condi...

Logical candidates for residue number system (RNS) implementations are applications which require very high data rates and are numerically intensive. The quadratic residue number system (QRNS) is specifically designed for fast complex arithmetic. In a previous paper by Dubois and Venetsanopoulos the use of Eisenstein complex numbers was proposed for the implementation of a radix-3 fast Fourier ...

A multi-residue method was developed and validated for the quantitation and confirmation of avermectins and moxidectin residues in bovine liver. Target analytes were extracted from liver homogenate using C8 solid phase cartridges, chromatographed under basic pH conditions in order to promote the formation of analyte anions, and detected by ion-trap mass spectrometry (MS) in negative ion mode us...
