This paper presents two strong distinguishers for the deterministic random bit generator ISAAC, requiring 2 and 2 samples of respectively 64 and 32 bits, based on the observation that more than 2 167 initial states among the 2 192 ones induce a strongly non-uniform distribution of the bits produced at the first round of the algorithm. A previous attack on ISAAC presented at Asiacrypt’06 by Paul...

Teamwork is becoming increasingly important in a large number of multiagent applications. With the growing importance of teamwork, there is now an increasing need for tools for analysis and evaluation of such teams. We are developing automated techniques for analyzing agent teams. In this paper we present ISAAC, an automated assistant that uses these techniques to perform post-hoc analysis of R...

This paper presents a description of ISAAC, the Immersive Simulation Animation And Construction program designed and built at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH). ISAAC is a scene composition application for the interactive construction of virtual worlds. Working directly in a virtual environment, objects can be positioned, oriented and scaled using direct and indirect mani...

The results of the FORS and ISAAC Science Verification of the FORS and ISAAC instruments at the VLT ANTU/UT1 are described. The following observations have been carried out: 1) the Cluster Deep Field MS1008.1-1224 2) the Antlia dwarf spheroidal Galaxy 3) multiple Object Spectroscopy of Lyman break galaxies in the AXAF and Hubble Deep Field South 4) ISAAC IR Spectroscopy of a gravitationally mag...
