There has been a major emphasis recently in the semiconductor industry on designing industrial-strength property specification languages (PSLs). Two major languages are ForSpec and Sugar 2.0, which are both extensions of Pnueli’s LTL. Both ForSpec and Sugar 2.0 directly support reset/abort signals, in which a check for a property ψ may be terminated and declared successful by an reset/abort sig...

Biclique attack, is a new cryptanalytic technique which brings new tools from the area of hash functions to the area of block cipher cryptanalysis. Till now, this technique is the only one able to analyze the full-round AES cipher in a single key scenario. In this paper, we introduce non-isomorphic biclique attack, a modified version of the original biclique attack. In this attack we obtain iso...

This paper describes a real-time abort guidance algorithm which determines the time sequence of the powered maneuvers and the orientation of the thrust vector throughout an abort-mission action initiated during the orbiter ascent phase. It involves guiding a heavily loaded Space Shuttle vehicle, passing through severe environmental conditions, back to a designated landing area. A graphical exam...

The impossible differential attack is one of the most fundamental tools cryptanalysis and has been successfully applied to a large variety block ciphers. In typical attack, foundation first step construct an differential. Nowadays, two kinds commonly used approaches in construction are matrix-based tool-aided automatic search methods. this paper, we proposed new method combining early-abort str...

This study identifies evaluative, attitudinal, and behavioral factors that enhance or reduce the likelihood of consumers aborting intended online transactions (transaction abort likelihood). Path analyses show that risk perceptions associated with eshopping have direct influence on the transaction abort likelihood, whereas benefit perceptions do not. In addition, consumers who have favorable at...

A study is performed to ascertain the validity of the use of inviscid and viscous simulation methods to predict the axial and normal forces during a launch abort scenario for manned space flight vehicles. The proximity drag character of the Apollo launch escape vehicle (LEV) was studied in detail in a wind tunnel during the Apollo program. Simulation results obtained during the present effort a...

In this work we develop a new quadratic placement technique where we prematurely abort the linear system solver to save runtime. This has low impact in the placement flow due to the expand-contract phenomena intrinsic to the ICCG solver outlined in this paper. A coloring scheme for placement useful for comparing visually placement results is described. The coloring scheme then is used to create...
