Third generation cellular network technology (3G) can revolutionize communications and data exchanges between many people in a more overwhelming fashion than 2G and 2.5G networks did. The 3G UMTS, the 3G GSM and the 3G GPRS rely on the KASUMI block cipher. Therefore, increasing speed, decreasing power consumption and error detection/correction are the major concerns of the KASUMI algorithm and ...

Moduli selection is one of the most important issues in the implementation of systems that make use of residue number systems. In this paper, we describe a software tool that assists system designers in moduli selection for the design of RNS-based FIR filters and filter banks. According to some filter specification parameters, the software tool constructs valid moduli sets and calculates their ...

Using the topological techniques developed in an earlier paper with Vafa, a field theory action is constructed for any open string with critical N=2 worldsheet superconformal invariance. Instead of the Chern-Simons-like action found by Witten, this action resembles that of a Wess-Zumino-Witten model. For the N=2 string which describes (2,2) self-dual Yang-Mills, the string field generalizes the...

We aim at comparing computations with asymptotic models issued from incompressible Navier-Stokes at high Reynolds number: the Reduced Navier-Stokes/Prandtl (RNS/P) equations and the Double Deck (DD) equations. We treat the case of the steady two dimensional flow in a constricted pipe. In particular, finite differences and finite element solvers are compared for the RNS/P equations. It results f...

This is a review of the new manifestly spacetime-supersymmetric description of the superstring. The new description contains N=2 worldsheet supersymmetry, and is related by a field redefinition to the standard RNS description. It is especially convenient for four-dimensional compactifications since SO(3,1) super-Poincaré invariance can be made manifest. Parts of this work have been done in coll...

The UTRAN consists of a set of Radio Network Subsystems connected to the Core Network through the Iu. The Iu interface has two flavours: the Iu-CS, connecting to the Circuit-Switched-domain, the Iu-PS when connecting to the Packet-Switched-domain. A Radio Network Subsystem (RNS) consists of a Radio Network Controller and one or more Node Bs. A Node B is connected to the RNC through the Iub inte...

In this paper we report preliminary results of experiments with finding efficient circuits (over binary bases) using SAT-solvers. We present upper bounds for functions with constant number of inputs as well as general upper bounds that were found automatically. We focus mainly on MOD-functions. Besides theoretical interest, these functions are also interesting from a practical point of view as ...

This article provides a novel technique of X (mod P) realization. It is based on the Reed-Muller polynomial expansion. The advantage of the approach concludes in the capability to realize X (mod P) for an arbitrary P. The approach is competitive with the known realizations on the speed processing. Advantages and results of comparison with the known approaches for X [9:1] and P=7 is demonstrated...

A covariant map between the Ramond-Neveu-Schwarz (RNS) and pure spinor formalisms for the superstring is found which transforms the RNS and pure spinor BRST operators into each other. The key ingredient is a dynamical twisting of the ten spin-half RNS fermions into five spin-one and five spin-zero fermions using bosonic pure spinors that parameterize an SO(10)/U(5) coset. The map relates massle...
