Performance of Finite Field Arithmetic in an Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem Zhi Li, John Higgins, Mark Clement 3361 TMCB Brigham Young University Provo, UT 84602 {zli,higgins,clement}@cs.byu.edu Abstract As the Internet commerce becomes a more important part of the economy, network security is receiving more emphasis. Time spent in data encryption can be a significant performance bottleneck for ma...

Regulatory fit is experienced when people pursue a goal in a manner that sustains their regulatory orientation. Previous research on promotion and prevention orientations has found that regulatory fit increases people s perception that a decision they made was ‘‘right,’’ which in turn transfers value to the decision outcome, including being willing to pay more for a product than those who chose...

The aim of this chapter is to present a critical analysis of the findings from a large-scale research project in the UK where electronic or interactive whiteboards were introduced into over 200 classrooms of the teachers of 9-11 year olds in England (Higgins et al., 2005). The initiative was explicitly designated as a national pilot project with the key goal of raising levels of attainment in t...

Using generalizations of the well known Rice formula and applying the general method related to m-dependent processes that we settled in earlier works, allow one to obtain representations into the Itô-Wiener Chaos and CLTs for curve-crossings number. This approach not only explains heuristic considerations of Longuet-Higgins on specular points and related problems in the context of sea modellin...

This note describes a method for computing estimates of the rigid transformation G and estimates of the coordinates of a set of n points P1, . . . ,Pn in the two camera reference frames from the n pairs (x1,y ′ 1), . . . (xn,y ′ n) of noisy measurements of their corresponding images. The transformation G is called camera motion, and the point coordinates Xi, Xi of the world points in the two re...

METHOD OF COMPUTING THE PITCH NAMES OF NOTES IN MIDI-LIKE MUSIC REPRESENTATIONS The invention described here consists of an algorithmic method called ps13 that reliably computes the correct pitch names (e.g., C]4, B[5 etc.) of the notes in a passage of tonal music, when given only the onset-time and MIDI note number of each note in the passage. The ps13 algorithm has been shown to be more relia...

This paper gives a new method for image rectiication, the process of resampling pairs of stereo images taken from widely diiering viewpoints in order to produce a pair of \matched epipolar projections". These are projections in which the epipolar lines run parallel with the x-axis and consequently, disparities between the images are in the x-direction only. The method is based on an examination...

Beyond motivations to achieve particular outcomes, people also have motivations to use particular strategies while pursuing these outcomes. This article integrates research on the latter strategic preferences and discusses the place of such research in the broader investigation of motivated thinking. A review of studies examining the strategic preferences stemming from both motivations for prom...

This research proposes a model to predict unanticipated use of software by high school students after mandatory adoption. We define unanticipated use as voluntarily extending the use of a software product to new tasks and new settings after mandatory adoption for a specific task in a specific setting. We are basing our model on TAM2 (Venkatesh and Davis 2000), which is an extension of the origi...
