BLIND PARAMETER ESTIMATION OF A RATE k/n CONVOLUTIONAL CODE IN NOISELESS CASE
This paper concerns to blind identification of a convolutional code with desired rate in a noiseless transmission scenario. To the best of our knowledge, blind estimation of convolutional code based on only the received bitstream doesn’t lead to a unique solution. Hence, without loss of generality, we will assume that the transmitter employs a non-catastrophic encoder. Moreover, we consider a c...
متن کاملUnconditional security of quantum key distribution over arbitrarily long distances
Quantum key distribution is widely thought to offer unconditional security in communication between two users. Unfortunately, a widely accepted proof of its security in the presence of source, device, and channel noises has been missing. This long-standing problem is solved here by showing that, given fault-tolerant quantum computers, quantum key distribution over an arbitrarily long distance o...

متن کاملThe next ‘ killer ap ’ has been here all along : case studies as practical business applications
The next ‘killer ap’ is a term the software development community uses to describe its great quest for advancing technology by defining and meeting users’ needs and wants and rapidly diffusing it throughout the market. By making a computer application (program) that meets those needs and making it is so ubiquitously available, it creates a flood of demand. Business managers are also questing af...
متن کاملImmortality in the Great Religions and Myths of Iran, Mesopotamia, Sumer, and Greece
In every mythological story, a quest for immortality and eternality depicts man’s inner fervor for unity with gods and the supreme power. Man seeks full immersion in life and longs for immortality at the same time. In other words, he wants to live both in time and in eternity. The desire for eternity in man shows his ceaseless struggle with time, and even more so an intense fight with death to ...
