  2. Nitro hacking attacks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitro_hacking_attacks

    The Nitro hacking attacks were a targeted malware campaign in 2011 suspected to be a case of corporate espionage. [1] At least 48 confirmed companies were infected with a Trojan called Poison Ivy that transferred intellectual property to remote servers. [ 2 ]

  3. Millisecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millisecond

    A millisecond (from milli-and second; symbol: ms) is a unit of time in the International System of Units equal to one thousandth (0.001 or 10 −3 or 1 / 1000) of a second [1] [2] or 1000 microseconds.

  4. Blum Blum Shub - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blum_Blum_Shub

    Blum Blum Shub takes the form + =, where M = pq is the product of two large primes p and q.At each step of the algorithm, some output is derived from x n+1; the output is commonly either the bit parity of x n+1 or one or more of the least significant bits of x n+1.

  5. Code generation (compiler) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_generation_(compiler)

    The input to the code generator typically consists of a parse tree or an abstract syntax tree. [1] The tree is converted into a linear sequence of instructions, usually in an intermediate language such as three-address code. Further stages of compilation may or may not be referred to as "code generation", depending on whether they involve a ...

  6. Code generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_generation

    In computing, code generation denotes software techniques or systems that generate program code which may then be used independently of the generator system in a runtime environment. Specific articles: Code generation (compiler), a mechanism to produce the executable form of computer programs, such as machine code, in some automatic manner

  7. Random number generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_number_generation

    Dice are an example of a mechanical hardware random number generator. When a cubical die is rolled, a random number from 1 to 6 is obtained. Random number generation is a process by which, often by means of a random number generator (RNG), a sequence of numbers or symbols is generated that cannot be reasonably predicted better than by random chance.

  8. Xorshift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xorshift

    An xorshift* generator applies an invertible multiplication (modulo the word size) as a non-linear transformation to the output of an xorshift generator, as suggested by Marsaglia. [1] All xorshift* generators emit a sequence of values that is equidistributed in the maximum possible dimension (except that they will never output zero for 16 ...

  9. Parity bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_bit

    See Hamming code for an example of an error-correcting code. Parity bit checking is used occasionally for transmitting ASCII characters, which have 7 bits, leaving the 8th bit as a parity bit. For example, the parity bit can be computed as follows. Assume Alice and Bob are communicating and Alice wants to send Bob the simple 4-bit message 1001.
