Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe New Variable-Length Key Symmetric CryptosystemDavood Rezaei Pour, Mohamad Rushdan Md Said, Kamel Ariffin Mohd Atan, Mohamed OthmanProblem statement: In this study, we proposed a new 64-bit block cipher that accepted a variable-length key up to 512 bits, which was suitable for implementation in a variety of environments. Approach: The cipher algorithm was a 16-round Feistel network with a bijective function f and was made up of two key-dependent 16×16 S-boxes, bitwise rotations, and a carefully designed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPossibility of High Performance Quantum Computation by using Evanescent Photons in Living SystemsTakaaki MushaPenrose and Hameroff suggested that microtubles in living systems functioned as quantum computers by utilizing evanescent photons. On the basis of the theorem that the evanescent photon is a superluminal particle, the possibility of high performance computation in living systems has been studied. From the theoretical analysis, it is shown that the living system can achieve large quantum bits computation … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,359 accessesView PDFCite
