In building management systems (BMS), a medium may have between 200 and 1000 sensor points. Their labels need to be translated into naming standard so they can automatically recognised by the BMS platform. The current industrial practices often manually translate these points (this is known as tagging process), which takes around 8 hours for every 100 We introduce an AI-based multi-stage text c...

This paper discusses a known-plaintext attack on a redundancy reducing cipher method which is proposed by Wayner. We also propose an extension of Wayner’s redundancy reducing cipher scheme so that the security will be improved greatly.

The gap between the number of known protein sequences and structures continues to widen, particularly as a result of sequencing projects for entire genomes. Recently there have been many attempts to generate structural assignments to all genes on sets of completed genomes using fold-recognition methods. We developed a method that detects false positives made by these genome-wide structural assi...

We prove that the set of DES permutations (encryption and decryption for each DES key) is not closed under functional composition. This implies that, in general, multiple DES-encryption is not equivalent to single DES-encryption, and that DES is not susceptible to a particular known-plaintext attack which requires, on average, 228 steps. We also show that the size of the subgroup generated by t...

As noted below, most researchers agree that young babies should sleep in the same room where their parents sleep. The point of disagreement is whether parents should be advised against sharing their beds. Some researchers think that the safest arrangement involves cosleeping without sharing the same bed—-i.e., placing a young infant in a crib or “side car” that is within arm’s reach of his parent.
