  2. Tiny Encryption Algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiny_Encryption_Algorithm

    In cryptography, the Tiny Encryption Algorithm (TEA) is a block cipher notable for its simplicity of description and implementation, typically a few lines of code.It was designed by David Wheeler and Roger Needham of the Cambridge Computer Laboratory; it was first presented at the Fast Software Encryption workshop in Leuven in 1994, and first published in the proceedings of that workshop.

  3. Data Encryption Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Encryption_Standard

    Figure 3— The key-schedule of DES. Figure 3 illustrates the key schedule for encryption—the algorithm which generates the subkeys. Initially, 56 bits of the key are selected from the initial 64 by Permuted Choice 1 (PC-1)—the remaining eight bits are either discarded or used as parity check bits. The 56 bits are then divided into two 28 ...

  4. Key schedule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_schedule

    DES has a key schedule in which the 56-bit key is divided into two 28-bit halves; each half is thereafter treated separately. In successive rounds, both halves are rotated left by one or two bits (specified for each round), and then 48 round key bits are selected by Permuted Choice 2 (PC-2) – 24 bits from the left half and 24 from the right ...

  5. Key derivation function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_derivation_function

    Example of a Key Derivation Function chain as used in the Signal Protocol.The output of one KDF function is the input to the next KDF function in the chain. In cryptography, a key derivation function (KDF) is a cryptographic algorithm that derives one or more secret keys from a secret value such as a master key, a password, or a passphrase using a pseudorandom function (which typically uses a ...

  6. Feistel cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feistel_cipher

    A Feistel network uses a round function, a function which takes two inputs – a data block and a subkey – and returns one output of the same size as the data block. [1] In each round, the round function is run on half of the data to be encrypted, and its output is XORed with the other half of the data.

  7. Playfair cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playfair_cipher

    A good tutorial on reconstructing the key for a Playfair cipher can be found in chapter 7, "Solution to Polygraphic Substitution Systems," of Field Manual 34-40-2, produced by the United States Army. Another cryptanalysis of a Playfair cipher can be found in Chapter XXI of Helen Fouché Gaines' Cryptanalysis / a study of ciphers and their ...

  8. Affine cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_cipher

    The possible values that a could be are 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, and 25. The value for b can be arbitrary as long as a does not equal 1 since this is the shift of the cipher. Thus, the encryption function for this example will be y = E(x) = (5x + 8) mod 26. The first step in encrypting the message is to write the numeric values of ...

  9. Interval scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_scheduling

    Interval scheduling is a class of problems in computer science, particularly in the area of algorithm design. The problems consider a set of tasks. Each task is represented by an interval describing the time in which it needs to be processed by some machine (or, equivalently, scheduled on some resource).
