چکیده

In this paper, a new algorithm based on Binary Decision Diagram (BDD) for reliability graph analysis is proposed. The reliability graphs are encoded into a BDD that can be easily evaluated. The minpaths and mincuts of a reliability graph can be obtained by BDD. Sensitivity analysis and ordering of variables are discussed in this paper as well. Due to the feature of BDD, the sum of disjoint products (SDP) can be represented by BDD implicitly, which avoids huge storage and high computation complexity for large reliability graphs. Some examples and experiments show the eeciency of this algorithm.

Time and Space Complexity Reduction of a Cryptanalysis Algorithm

Binary Decision Diagram (in short BDD) is an efficient data structure which has been used widely in computer science and engineering. BDD-based attack in key stream cryptanalysis is one of the best forms of attack in its category. In this paper, we propose a new key stream attack which is based on ZDD(Zero-suppressed BDD). We show how a ZDD-based key stream attack is more efficient in time and ...

Performance Improvement of Edge Expansion Technique for BDD-based Network Reliability Analysis

The network reliability analysis based on Binary Decision Diagram (BDD) consists of three steps: edge ordering, BDD generation and BDD evaluation. The BDD generation process using edge expansion technique should recursively decompose the network and construct the edge expansion subnet in a top-down manner. There is large number of useless or redundant subnets generated in this decomposition, wh...
