In this article we present a performance comparison of four symmetric block ciphers namely DES, Triple-DES, AES, and Blowfish. Performance evaluation based on CPU execution time is conducted under WinXP and Ubuntu /Linux version 8.10 operating system platforms. The study…

Acantholybas steinbaueri, a brachypterous new species, is described and illustrated from Java (Bali Island and Dammerman). The genus Acantholybas is redescribed, and a key to the four known species is provided.

The usage of computing resources which are distributed as a service over a network is a cloud computing. There are a number of well-known profitable and individual cloud computing services to date. The choice of reactive information mutual in the cloud…

I propose a technique that identifies program properties that may indicate errors. The technique generates machine learning models of run-time program properties known to expose faults, and applies these models to program properties of user-written code to classify and rank…

Java 1.5 will include a type system (called JSR-14) that supports parametric polymorphism, or generic classes. This will bring many benefits to Java programmers, not least because current Java practise makes heavy use of logically-generic classes, including container classes. Translation…

Three-dimensional route maps, which depict a path from one location to another, can be powerful tools for visualizing and communicating directions. This thesis presents a client-server architecture for generating and displaying accurate, usable route maps between locations on MIT's campus.…

The emergence of industry standards often has disruptive impacts on the behavior of markets. It can drive commoditization, substitution and convergence. It also changes the industry structure creating new business models and value chains, coupled with the entrance of new…

Over the past several years, the explosive growth of biological data generated by new high-throughput instruments has virtually begun to drown the biological community. There is no established infrastructure to deal with these data in a consistent and successful fashion.…

This paper presents a JAVA based framework for RTL modeling and simulation of digital hardware designs. After linking between object-oriented concepts and RTL models, the JAVA analogy to features found in a widely used hardware description language like Verilog is…

This paper proposes a novel approach on embedding automatic parallelization in compilers. Due to an increasing popularity of multi-processor and multi-core architectures, software must take advantage of the processing power they offer and increase the level of parallelism as much…
