Abstract. We introduce the notion of nonhomomorphicity as an alternative criterion that forecasts nonlinear characteristics of a Boolean function. Although both nonhomomorphicity a...
Key management is the Achilles’ heel of cryptography. This work presents a novel Key-Lifecycle Management System (KLMS), which addresses two issues that have not been addressed ...
Oblivious transfer (OT) is an important primitive in cryptography. In chosen one-out-of-two string OT, a sender offers two strings, one of which the other party, called the receive...
Abstract. In this paper, we introduce the concept of kth-order nonhomomorphicity of mappings or S-boxes as an alternative indicator that forecasts nonlinearity characteristics of a...
Nodes in a sensor network may be lost due to power exhaustion or malicious attacks. To extend the lifetime of the sensor network, new node deployment is necessary. In military sce...
