Feedback Shift Registers as Cellular Automata Boundary Conditions
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a new design for random number generation. The outputs of linear feedback shift registers (LFSRs) act as continuous inputs to the two boundaries of a one-dimensional (1-D) Elementary Cellular Automata (ECA). The results show superior randomness features and the output string has passed the Diehard statistical battery of tests. The design is good candidate for parallel random number generation, has strong correlation immunity and it is inherently amenable for VLSI implementation.

Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) are a promising nanotechnology to implement digital circuits at the nanoscale. Devices based on QCA have the advantages of faster speed, lower power consumption, and greatly reduced sizes. In this paper, we are presented the circuits, which generate random numbers in QCA. Random numbers have many uses in science, art, statistics, cryptography, gaming, gambli...
متن کاملAn Improved Attack on the Shrinking Generator
This work proposes a known-plaintext attack on the Shrinking Generator through its characterization by means of Cellular Automata. It is based on the computation of the characteristic polynomials of sub-automata and on the generation of the Galois field associated to one of the Linear Feedback Shift Registers components of the generator. The proposed algorithm allows predicting a large number o...

متن کاملAn Efficient Prng for Stream Ciphers Based on Hybrid Cellular Automata with Nonlinear Feedback
This work proposes a high efficiency PRNG suitable for use in stream ciphers. It is based on hybrid cellular automata with nonlinear feedback to improve its resistance to attacks. It is shown that it can be designed with an arbitrary number N of cells as long as N>Nth with no need for designing a new polynomial like in traditional feedback shift registers (it is easily scalable). The space of t...
