Parents can never be sure how their children will react to their first day of kindergarten.

Others will cling, or cry, or worse, making the first day difficult for everyone involved.

Yet another reason to encourage energy efficiency?
By: SGN Staff
At first glance it may seem strange to say that owners of energy-efficient, Energy Star certified homes are less likely to default on their mortgage, but that's the primary finding of a recent study. For those owners, the risk of mortgage default is one-third lower. Why? The answer is not quite this simple, but the energy savings of an efficient home can make it easier to consistently stay on top of mortgage payments.
The report, Home Energy Efficiency and Mortgage Risks, was conducted by the Chapel Hill Center for Community Capital at the University of North Carolina and the energy conservation advocacy group Institute for Market Transformation (IMT). It is said to be the first academic study to examine the link between energy efficiency and repaying a mortgage, according to a Bloomberg BNA news article.
"It stands to reason that energy-efficient homes should have a lower default rate, because the owners of these homes save money on their utility bills, and they can put that money toward their mortgage payments," Cliff Majersik, IMT executive director, was quoted as saying. "We long believed this to be the case, and now this study proves it. Successful housing market reforms will require reconsidering the risk factors in mortgage default, including energy costs."
Robert Sahadi, director of energy efficiency finance policy for IMT, confirmed that energy savings are sufficient to help homeowners maintain their mortgage payments, particularly for a medium-income mortgage holder.

I have a lot of respect for the Rams/49ers rivalry, but the divisional rival I hate the most is the Seattle Seahawks. The Rams have never beat the Seahawks twice in the same season, but the Rams haven't lost a divisional game this season.We already know that Steven Jackson is going to have his 8th straight 1,000 yard game season. He's only 10 yards away! We also know that Zuerlein is most likely not going to break any NFL records (not against one of the toughest road teams in the NFL), but what else is going to happen in the game? Rams Win Close GameThe St. Louis Rams had their winning season hopes dashed by the Seahawks in the final game of the 2010 season. Unlike the final game of 2010, this game will be very close and will keep fans on the edge of their seats til the end. The Rams won't win by more then 3 or 7 points, but they'll win and that's all that matters. Don't be surprised if the game goes into overtime, with a final score of something like 27-20.

Message From the Dean
Thank you for taking the time to get connected with Northeastern's College of Science — alumni and friends are key enablers of our past and future success.
The seeds of innovation can run very deep, and here in the College of Science, we have made great strides in supporting our faculty and students as they push the envelope and challenge current thinking.
A major success for the college last year was the acquisition of the Ocean Genome Legacy. Innovator and Northeastern Honorary Degree recipient Don Comb developed this leading collection with the aim to collect DNA samples from every species within the ocean. At a time when the loss of biodiversity is at an all time high, Northeastern will spearhead the collection and study of samples with the aim to achieve sustainability in our precious oceans. The collection is invaluable for our Urban Coastal Sustainability Initiative and is expected to provide unique experiential learning and research possibilities. We are working with a number of countries including, most recently, Malaysia to expand our DNA repository worldwide.
This past summer, researchers from our Marine Science Center provided the science activity in Mission 31–a month-long expedition led by Fabien Cousteau, grandson of the late Jacques Yves Cousteau. The mission took place at Aquarius, the last remaining underwater research station in the world, located nine miles off the coast of Key Largo, Florida. The mission was viewed by over 330 million people worldwide.
We are proud of our students who win prestigious awards that reflect on themselves and the college, such as biology major Theo Bowe, S'16, who recently received the prestigious Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship, and Brian Conlon, a senior scientist in Northeastern's Antimicrobial Discovery Center, who was recently awarded the Charles A. King Trust Postdoctoral Fellowship.
Additionally, we made seven great new tenured/tenure-track faculty hires last year.
There are so many exciting things happening in the College of Science—from discovery and innovation, with talented faculty and students. I am proud to represent one of the most exciting colleges here on campus. Please feel free to stop by and visit us.
J. Murray Gibson
Founding Dean
College of Science
Northeastern University
About Dean Gibson
Dr. J. Murray Gibson is the founding dean of the College of Science at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts. The College has 2,700 undergraduates, nearly 600 graduate students, and 181 faculty in six departments. Northeastern is a top-ranked private research university which is recognized as a leader in experiential co-operative education.
Born and raised in Scotland, Gibson has held a range of senior academic and research positions. Most recently, he was the Director of the $1.7 billion Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory. Under his direction, APS emerged as the most productive source of protein structures in the world, became the global leader in X-ray studies of materials under extreme conditions, and attained the largest number of users of any scientific facility in the USA.
Gibson earned his BSc in natural philosophy at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, and his PhD in physics from the University of Cambridge, England. He emigrated to the United States in 1978, beginning a fellowship at IBM Research, followed by 11 years at AT&T Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, New Jersey. At Bell Labs, Gibson pioneered the use of advanced electron microscopy techniques to understand the structure/property relationships of semiconductor nanostructures. He built the first instrument that visualized in-situ—at atomic resolution—the growth of thin films by molecular beam epitaxy. Among several patents, he co-invented a novel approach to semiconductor lithography that led to the development of a spin-off company.
Gibson joined the University of Illinois in 1991, and trained 15 PhD students before joining Argonne in 1999 as the Director of its Materials Science Division. He has published almost 200 journal articles and is a fellow of the American Physical Society and the Royal Microscopical Society.

College Student Problems
by Kiss Intern: Mindy
posted Feb 26 2013 12:59PM
So, being a college student I feel like my money is always gone, ya know what I mean? Whether it's buying food, coffee, text books (etc.)… it's all gone. Well I wanted to offer you guys some advice on how to save some money (that you can put to good use on say that new JT cd next month!)
Food- buying food on campus can get very pricy. Instead of getting food there, try making your own lunch. If you're not a morning person, like me, you can even make it the night before and have it ready for the morning. The cost of all the ingredients for your homemade lunch will most likely be a fraction of the cost you would spend buying food. If you would rather not do that I offer you option 2: Go somewhere off campus. It's that easy.
Coffee/Beverages- So, you bought a venti-double-mocha- bean latte for $6, how do you feel about that? Don't get me wrong I love my coffee and tea, but feel guilty spending this much on a drink. But if you have a travel mug, use it! You can pretty much put anything you want in it, and most places will fill it for a discounted price! How cool is that? And you're helping the environment too. You rock.
Textbooks- They're so overpriced, we all know that. But there are ways of working with that. Try searching online, there's a good chance there is someone who wants to get rid of that math book as much as you need it. Or you could try renting them, the renting system is great, it's like buying it (for half the price) but you return it at the end of the semester. With all the new technology most books are offered in electronic format too, how awesome is that. You won't have to break your back with carrying heavy text books. And with the money you'd save it gives you an excuse to go buy that tablet you've been eyeing up.
Well, I hope this can help some of you, or you might think this chick is crazy who gave her a blog? It is what it is :]

RyTunes - Megan and Liz

posted Feb 26 2013 12:35PM
For my first post I figured it would be best to go back to one of the first music channels I ever watched. It's a previously small channel that now has close to one million subscribers. Two sisters had an idea and a pair of angelic voices that they decided to share with the world. Now Megan and Liz are finally starting to get the attention they deserve. In fact, if you went to Kissmas Bash this year you got to see and hear them live (and I am very jealous of you).
I had watched countless videos with the girls sitting in front of a camera singing whatever song they liked, and many times they had given me chills, but then they released this video and I think I must have watched it ten times before clicking anywhere else on my computer.

I must confess that if lo is screaming I dont always use a wipe for pee.
I let him dictate bedtime.
We breastfeed but if hes too hungry I get the formula out.
K (27) PCOS and T (27)
I have only given LO a real bath once. I dont eat real food anymore, just snacks/ takeout. I have no clue how long she eats when we nurse in bed. I feel like shes mmessing with me when she wakes up as soon as I close my eyes.
[[T]] + [[J]] = Gage Allen 2.28.13 ❤
.It is the strangest, most wonderful feeling to finally have e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g you've ever wanted.
I have fallen asleep in bed with LO on my chest. More than once. Sometimes that's the only way she'll sleep and I am too exhausted to soothe her into sleeping in her bed and then I wake up and it's been over an hour of both of us passed out.
I have only once cooked a real dinner since we got home from the hospital. That means 3+ weeks of take-out or makeshift meals. (Right there with you, Jessibean!)
I refuse to look at myself in the mirror anymore. I had no stretch marks for the whole pregnancy, but once we got home from the hospital a bunch popped up around my belly-button. That combined with my baby-belly is making me seriously hate my body. It's becoming a real issue.
Sometimes when my SO is sleeping next to me and I have to get up with Agnesse for what feels like the billionth time and I haven't gotten more than 15mins of sleep, I flip him off. It's juvenile and mean but it makes me feel spitefully better. :P

lol confessions of a FTM love it
He sleeps in our bed after his 5 am feeding a lot until like noon the next day we are in and out of bed during feedings and diaper changes. Making an effort now to put him in his crib instead of the bed.
Thing ive felt most guilty about. In the evenings after ive cleaned the house and given him his bath and gave daddy his takeout on a paper plate I have rewarded myself with a Corona with lemon and salt a few times and didnt pump:/ Dr. Oz's book says as long as I dont feel buzzed anymore its okay. Twice I only waited 25 minutes before bfing I felt okay but still. Now I pump before a beer just in case cant stand the guilt lol
Alicia & Brandon married 5.29.10
Sweet Baby Cameron Claire born 3.20.13 <3
I don't always use a wipe after pee diapers.
I dried up because I was too tired to pump and baby wouldn't latch.
I feel guilty because my mom watches him all day. (I stay up with him all night.)
I can't sleep when he sleeps unless I'm in another room. Even then, I'll imagine him screaming or crying.
I love this and don't at the same time. I'm so tired, and it feels like no matter what I do, my hair is forever tangled.
And my worst confession...I accidentally cut the tip of my son's thumb while clipping his nails. He cried a little then went back to eating, but I felt like a monster. (My husband thought I said I cut it off, but it wasn't like that at all.)

Price Value Quality
I bought this paint for the value or so I thought.
It looks good and white. But it goes on soooo THIN. So thin it runs like crazy off the brush and off the roller. It is not good quality at all. So far I have put 3 coats over old white latex paint. Don't waste your money and time on this stuff. It is not worth it.

The meaning "good-humored, merry," is from astrological belief that those born under the sign of the planet Jupiter are of such dispositions. Related: Jovially.

Chris Paul did not play for the Clippers on Tuesday night in Houston. The Clippers still won. This bears repeating. For a second consecutive night, Paul spent the game on the bench because of a bruised right kneecap. But his team didn't miss a beat, pulling away from the Houston Rockets with a big third quarter in a 117-109 win at Toyota Center. Unbelievable, right? In truth, it doesn't make sense. Paul is the Clippers' engine, a point guard who starts the offense, directs his teammates and often finishes plays. But in his absence, his teammates have stepped up. They defeated the Memphis Grizzlies by 23 points on Monday night and used a fast second-half start to lead the Rockets by 19 at one point in the third quarter. They put together a 10-0 run to start the period and eventually completed a 36-9 run that gave them an 86-67 lead with 3:39 left in the third. "We were just a little sharper in the third quarter," Coach Vinny Del Negro said. "Coach told us we had to play some de...

• Three of four CEOs believe they take sufficient action to protect their companies' reputations
• Most CEOs say greater transparency is needed to increase investor confidence
NEW YORK, July 7, 2010 – In the wake of the recent economic crisis, CEOs of publicly held companies are focused on succession planning, corporate reputation and brand, and restoring investor confidence, according to the sixth annual NYSE Euronext CEO Report, titled "Back to Business."
The study finds that approximately two-thirds of U.S. companies have formal succession plans for the CEO role compared to 14% of European companies (see chart*). While three of four CEOs feel they do enough to protect their companies' reputations (see chart*), those surveyed believe the most important characteristics that would have a positive impact on their company's reputation are honesty, integrity, ethics, transparency and leadership by example.
The new NYSE Euronext CEO Report is based on interviews conducted with 325 CEOs from companies listed on NYSE Euronext exchanges covering a wide range of industries and geographies during March 2010. With 44% of respondents based outside the United States, the survey is designed to capture insights from CEOs around the world on how the past economic challenges may impact their current and future business plans. The survey was conducted on behalf of NYSE Euronext by Opinion Research Corporation, an independent market research and consulting firm.
"CEOs globally realize that sound business practices, planning and governance best serve the corporation and shareholders," said Duncan L. Niederauer, Chief Executive Officer, NYSE Euronext. "Setting forth core values and embedding these within the corporate culture is essential to ensuring formidable and sustainable organizations."
CEOs surveyed also point specifically to the transparency of their own internal policies and procedures as a means to increase shareholder confidence and trust. Most CEOs feel insufficient transparency about risk taking (67%), insufficient board oversight (65%), and executive compensation (55%) are currently among the top concerns of shareholders (see chart*). As a result, a large majority of CEOs say their companies have improved transparency related to their companies' risk policies and procedures, as well as strengthened their board's risk oversight (see chart*).
"A strong reputation built on acknowledged behaviors and corporate practices is a key ingredient to building a deep reservoir of good will among shareholders that will serve a company well," said Jeffrey T. Resnick, global managing director of Opinion Research Corporation. "Reputation is about actions not public relations. As Warren Buffet has said, 'It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you'll do things differently.' This is advice that a shareholder has to love."
Key findings on other aspects of the economic recovery will be disseminated periodically until the NYSE Euronext CEO Report is released in its entirety later this month in nyse magazine and at www.nysemagazine.com.

Delivering secure access
SecureAdmin is a Data ONTAP module designed to authenticated, command-based administrative sessions between an administrative user and Data ONTAP over an intranet or the Internet.
For environments with many administrators, internal security concerns, or the need to implement specific security policies, SecureAdmin is designed to authenticate both the administrative user and the filer, creating a secured, direct communication link to the filer. It helps protect administrative logins, passwords, and session commands from "cleartext" snooping by replacing rsh and telnet with the strongly encrypted SSH 1.0 protocol.
SecureAdmin is available on CD and requires a separately purchased, third-party SSH 1.x-compatible client. SecureAdmin is installed on the IBM TotalStorage N series filer from a remote client administrator console using a Web-based software installer application that is resident in Data ONTAP; installation does not require a filer reboot. Once installed on the filer, administrators perform a one-time setup for proper key generation for the SSH 1.x service. SecureAdmin can be configured to automatically enable the SSH service at boot time.

Pirateszone.com is not happy about getting 0 runs after having the bases loaded and no outs.
Encarnacion homers to left. Tie game 6-6.
Let's win this game Reds. Great job EE with the Homerun.
Paulino leads off the inning with a home run. 7-6 Pirates.
Each reliever has given up a home run. 3 in 1 and 2/3 innings.
Stanton finds a way to choke.
Mackanin leaving Stanton in reminds me of what Narron used to do, which is play "Press Your Luck".
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
Burton comes in and gets 2 outs to end the inning. 7-6 Pirates after 8.
Keppinger who just came in in a double switch, Hatteberg and Hopper due up.
Burton forgot he was part of the Reds bullpen and is supposed to give up a run when hes pitching.
Matt Capps in to pitch.
Keppinger homers to left! Tie game 7-7.

This application is a divisional of and claims priority to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/775,485, filed Feb. 9, 2004 now U.S. Pat. No. 7,289,629.
The present invention generally relates to cryptology, and more particularly, to utilizing primitives for secure hash functions and/or stream ciphers.
As digital communication becomes more commonplace, the need for securing the communication channels becomes increasingly more important. For example, current technologies allow a user to remotely access bank accounts, medical information, and other private and sensitive data.
Cryptology has been widely used to provide secure digital communication. Cryptology relates to the enciphering (or encrypting) and deciphering (decrypting) of messages. The encryption and decryption generally uses some secret information (such as a key) for processing the data to be secured. In different encryption methods, a single key or multiple keys may be used for encryption and/or decryption.
Currently, two types of symmetric cipher are in common use. Generally, the encryption is said to be symmetric-key if for each associated encryption/decryption key pair, it is computationally "easy" to determine each of the keys in the key pair from the other key in the key pair. The first type of symmetric cipher is a block cipher which operates on a large block of data. The second type is a stream cipher which, by contrast, operates on relatively smaller units of text (such as bits). Depending on its implementation, stream cipher is believed to be much faster than block cipher and, hence, of special interest.
Additionally, stream ciphers can generate streams (also known as a "keystreams") while approaching the high security of one-time pad. Generally, one-time pad cipher generates a keystream with the same length as the text message being encrypted. The one-time pad keystream is believed to be completely random, yielding very high security levels.
One of the most widely used stream cipher techniques is the alleged RC4 (Ron's Code 4—variable-key-size encryption algorithm by Ron Rivest of RSA (Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman public key encryption technology)). For example, the alleged RC4 is used in SSL (secure socket layer) which is implemented in many Internet-based communications (e.g., through HTTP (hyper-text transfer protocol) and FTP (file transfer protocol)).
The alleged RC4, however, can require eight to sixteen machine cycles to output a single byte. While this can be run in software, it requires a substantial amount of hardware resources. Also, implementing the alleged RC4 in hardware limits the flexibility of running the alleged RC4 on different computing devices (i.e., because it would require the presence of alleged RC4-specific hardware in each device).
Another method used for securing data is a hash function. A hash function transforms an input string into a fixed-size output string (also known as a "hash value"). The size of the output string is referred to as a message "digest." It is generally desirable to provide a hash function that is one-way (i.e., hard to invert) and collision-free (i.e., different hash values are generated for different messages). One standard hash function is SHA-1 (secure hash algorithm as revised in 1994) which generates a 160-bit digest from an input stream of less than 264 bits.
Cryptographic primitives such as stream ciphers and secure hash functions are an essential part of many cryptosystems, making their efficient computation an important problem. Most practical implementations, however, use custom designs (message digests (e.g., MD5 and MD6), SHA-1 or alleged RC4, Seal, and Scream) that depend on empirical analysis, as opposed to formal complexity theoretic or information theoretic analysis.
Accordingly, the current solutions fail to provide an efficient methodology for quick and secure data encryption/decryption, while maintaining sufficient efficiency and/or speed for implementation in software.
Techniques are disclosed to enable efficient implementation of secure hash functions and/or stream ciphers. More specifically, a family of graphs is described that has relatively large girth, large daw, and/or rapid mixing properties. The graphs are suitable for construction of cryptographic primitives such as collision resistant hash functions and stream ciphers, which allow efficient software implementation.
The detailed description is described with reference to the accompanying figures. In the figures, the left-most digit(s) of a reference number identifies the figure in which the reference number first appears. The use of the same reference numbers in different figures indicates similar or identical items.
The following discussion assumes that the reader is familiar with cryptography techniques. For a basic introduction of cryptography, the reader is directed to a text written by A. Menezes, R van Oorschot, and S. Vanstone entitled, "Handbook of Applied Cryptography," fifth printing (August 2001), published by CRC Press.
The following disclosure describes a class of graphs that may be employed in software to implement secure hash functions and/or stream ciphers. More specifically, a collection of matrices are described that can be used in the construction of graphs suitable for provision of cryptographic primitives. The speed of the methodologies described here may be further improved by utilizing hardware such as an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC). Also, each stage discussed with reference to methodologies herein may be performed by software, hardware, firmware, or combinations thereof.
Secure Hash Function
Accordingly, instead of a simplified approach that may add the hash values of each input block yielding an implementation prone to security risks (e.g., because changing the order of input blocks will still result in the same final hash value), the method 100 ensures a more secure implementation by generating a final hash value recursively based on previously calculated hash values. Other implementations will be further discussed herein that utilize graphical and matrix-based methodologies to provide a final hash value.
Graph-Based Hash Compression Function
A hash function may be constructed by starting at a node z0 and tracing a path which is described by the sequence x1, . . . ,xd (208). The final point of the trace indicates the value of the compression function (210).
In an implementation, the compression function determination requires two properties:
Various types of intersecting paths may be considered for the graph girth. For example, a directed parallel cycle may include two directed paths starting at a same node and ending at a same node. A directed claw may be considered when the start nodes are different with a same end node. And, a directed cycle would start and end at a same node.
Property (1) is important so that one does not find collisions on the first block. If a randomizing function (such as a block cipher done by the data encryption standard (DES), MD5, and the like) is applied at the end of the first block, then on two different inputs property (2) avoids a collision in the next block and so on. Specific groups of matrices will be introduced under the section entitled "matrix graphs" below that will possess these properties. Moreover, the matrices are carefully chosen to contain small entries and admit efficient implementation (e.g., when implemented in software).
Matrix Graphs and Block Functions
In one implementation, the block function is based on a walk on a Cayley graph (referred to herein as a "matrix graph") defined by the matrices. Let some m=2l (e.g., m=232), where m is the number of nodes in the matrix graph. Let A={σ1, . . . ,σk} be a set of generators (such as those shown in
Given such a graph (G), the block function B may be defined as follows. Let Σ be an alphabet of size k (the number of generators of G). Then B will map V�Σn→V, so that given an initial location M and input X=x1, . . . ,xt with each xi a character over Σ, we have that B(M,X) is a matrix in V. By taking any correspondence between Σ and A, each xi may be viewed as a matrix BiεA. We can now define:
As discussed above with respect to properties (1) and (2), the desired characteristics of the block function may be summarized as:
Let g be a random one-way function mapping some domain D to D, with a bijection φ:D→V. Let I be the identity matrix in V. Let the input be X1, . . . ,Xb with each XiεΣt as above. We assume that the input is an integral number of blocks; padding issues for inputs of different sizes can be dealt with using standard methods. Define Y0=I and for 1≦i≦b1, Yi=φ(g(φ−1(B(Yi-1,Xi)))). We may define the hash function as H(X1, . . . ,Xb)=Yb.
In one implementation, if such a bijection φ is difficult to find, a relaxed bijection ψ can be used instead. More specifically, let f(Xi) be a secure hash evaluated at Xi that outputs w bits, which are interpreted by any convenient technique as numbers a1, a2, and a3 and defining Yiψ (Xi) by:
Accordingly, it can be seen that given two inputs X and X′, if they collide on an interblock step, the girth arguments show that if they differ on the following block, the outputs at the end of that block will differ also.
If d is chosen sufficiently small, property (2) can be shown for all graphs. In particular, let n be the number of nodes in a graph, and let d=(log n)/(2+ε). Let B(u) be the number of nodes within distance d of a node u; then |B(u)| ε o(√n). Now if a node v is chosen at random, we have as well |B(v)| ε o(√n). Accordingly, the probability that u and v form a claw (e.g., reaching a same node) is bounded by |B(u)∩B(v)|/∩n ε o(1). Thus, if d is logarithmic in the number of nodes in the graph, the probability of picking a claw is negligible.
Hash Implementation
In a stage 404, the initial matrix M is set to be the identity matrix (such as discussed with reference to the matrix I in the vertex set V). A stage 406 processes the data input blocks (e.g., as 9-bit blocks in the example discussed with reference to
Accordingly, instead of a simplified approach that may add the hash values of each input block yielding an implementation prone to security risks (e.g., because changing the order of input blocks will still result in the same final hash value), the method 400 ensures a more secure implementation by multiplying the hash values of each input block by a set of generator matrices (such as those discussed with reference to
In one implementation, using a table of 256 entries based on a set of four generator matrices is not as efficient as the example discussed with reference to
Stream Cipher Amplification
The matrix graphs discussed herein also have expansion properties that make them suitable for constructing stream ciphers. For example, the alleged RC4 can be thought of as a random walk on a graph with a set of permutations on {1, . . . ,256}. The matrix graphs have the additional property that their directed girth is relatively large. So, a random walk can not return to a given node in a relatively short amount of time. An immediate way to use this graph is to stretch the outputs of the alleged RC4, by using the alleged RC4's output as a way to perform a random walk on the graph. For example, after being initialized with a key k which sets the internal state, the stream cipher outputs a sequence of bytes, x1,x2, . . . . Each xi output is a function of the current internal state of the cipher, which is changed with each output. In an implementation, the output of this stream cipher is free of the correlations that have been found in the alleged RC4.
As discussed with reference to the block functions, by a suitable choice of generators A, each xi output may be associated by the block cipher with a matrix B(xi), and form a walk on the matrix graph generated by A. For a matrix
A remaining portion of this description (immediately following this section) deals with proof that the generator matrices used herein (such as those discussed with reference to
Free Monoids
The monoid M generated by the matrices S and T below is free, that is, isomorphic to the monoid of binary strings.
One way to prove this is to show that given AεM, only one of A′�S=A or A′�T=A holds with A′ ε M. In fact, the maximum component of A′ is shown to be strictly less than that of A, so that an easy induction accomplishes the proof.
Thus, an easy way to show that a monoid M generated by some set G of matrices is free, is to show that for any AεM, there is a unique U AεG with A′�U=A, where A′ ε M and smaller in some sense than A.
Considering the finite monoid generated by S and T (where operations are reduced modulo m=2l), the matrix graph so defined has relatively high girth.
Lemma. The matrix graph generated by S and T with operations modulo m=2l has girth l−1.
Proof. As the graph is a Cayley graph, it suffices to show that the identity I is not involved in a short cycle. Consider a matrix A on a path from the identity, and let amax be the maximum coefficient in A. If amax<m/2, then the maximum coefficient of either AS or AT is at most 2amax. Hence, if A is arrived at from a path of length t from I, and A′ is the matrix in the infinite monoid over □, if t<l, then amax<m, and A=A′ component-wise. In particular, as the infinite is free, A≠I. Thus I is not involved in a cycle of length less than l, proving the lemma.
Accordingly, this shows that it may generally be enough to find free monoids in one implementation. Moreover, the construction of the free monoid above suggests that to show that a monoid M generated by some set G of matrices is free, one should show that for any AεM, there is a unique U AεG with A′�U=A, where A′ ε M and smaller in some sense than A.
A Free Monoid
For a simple construction, let G1={T1, . . . ,T4} and M1 be the monoid generated by G1, with:
Note that if σi, for i=1 . . . 4, are the nontrivial degree-5 Gabber-Galil generators, then:
Lemma. The monoid M1 is free.
Proof. Given a matrix A, let A′ be the upper-left 2�2 submatrix of A. We note that σi 0 is either S for i=1,2 and T for s=3,4. Also, as the first two columns of the last row of any element of G1 are zero, if A=Π Ui for some UiεG1, then A�=ΠUi 0. Thus, given any AεM1, we have that A� is equivalent to a string sA over {S,T}, by the free-ness of the 2�2 monoid. Examining the generators, one can see that:
Hence, given the last two characters of sA, one can see that there is a unique Ti such that A′�Ti=A, with A′εM1. Furthermore, as |s′A|=|sA|−2, there is a norm on M1 that has been reduced, and so one can induct that M1 is indeed free.
General 3�3 Monoids
Any element of SL2(□+) can be identified with a binary string by forming the unique product equaling that element. The monoid of the previous section is then constructed from a set of SL2(□+) matrices whose strings are suffix-free. The entries in the third column are in this sense spurious. At the very least, aesthetic considerations may compel discovering matrices where all columns are involved in forming unique products.
A general class of free monoids are illustrate, of which the matrices of
Definition. Let the components of a matrix be:
A matrix is called feasible if the following holds:
Lemma. Any product of feasible generators has the sum of the first two columns strictly greater than the third, for the upper two components.
Proof. The proof is by induction on the length of the product. The base case is clear by the definition of feasible. Now suppose:
Assume that the sum of the first two columns is strictly greater than the sum of the third. Then, if one takes a step by a feasible generator, the first row is [Aa+Bd, Ab+Be, Ac+Bf+C]. Summing the first two entries results in:
Based on the property assumed of the generator matrix, the extra A and B result from the inequalities (and the strict inequality from the assumption that at least one of the generator inequalities is strict). Finally, the assumption on M gives A+B>C, proving the lemma.
Next, a general construction of generators whose monoid is free is described. Note this is one of many obvious ways to generalize the construction. A set of matrices C1, . . . ,Ck is said to be free if the monoid generated by them is free. This is equivalent to their expressions as products of SL2(□+) being prefix-free.
Lemma. Let C1, . . . ,Ck be any free matrices in SL2(□+). Fix a column cj of Cj, and let gj (i) for i=1,2 be elements of SL3(□+) defined from Cj by:
where the uj (i) and vj (i) are any integers satisfying:
as well as the conditions of previous Lemma. Then, the monoid generated by G={gj (i)}, with j=1, . . . ,k and i=1,2, is free.
Proof. Let M be the monoid generated by the G of the lemma. The same technique as before may be used, namely, given any XεM, it can be shown that either XεG, or there is a unique TεM with X′r=X for some X′ εM. Given Xε (M/G), as before one can see that
then xj≧x3 implies:
as u2>w and v2>y. But the first and final inequalities are impossible, as all numbers are ≧0. For the other direction, assume that X=X′gj (1) but xj is not greater than or equal to x3. Then, either
by the choice of u1 and v1. But this implies either a+b≦c or d+e≦f, and as the gk (i) are feasible generators, neither situation is possible by the previous Lemma. The case when j=2 is analogous.
Accordingly, the vectors {u(i), v(i)}i=1,2 are a disambiguating pair with respect to a matrix C ε SL2(
Remark Accordingly, this construction can be easily extended to generators of larger dimension.
Hardware Implementation
Computer environment 600 includes a general-purpose computing device in the form of a computer 602. The components of computer 602 can include, but are not limited to, one or more processors or processing units 604 (optionally including a cryptographic processor or co-processor), a system memory 606, and a system bus 608 that couples various system components including the processor 604 to the system memory 606.
The system bus 608 represents one or more of any of several types of bus structures, including a memory bus or memory controller, a peripheral bus, an accelerated graphics port, and a processor or local bus using any of a variety of bus architectures. By way of example, such architectures can include an Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) bus, a Micro Channel Architecture (MCA) bus, an Enhanced ISA (EISA) bus, a Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) local bus, and a Peripheral Component Interconnects (PCI) bus also known as a Mezzanine bus.
Computer 602 typically includes a variety of computer-readable media. Such media can be any available media that is accessible by computer 602 and includes both volatile and non-volatile media, removable and non-removable media.
The system memory 606 includes computer-readable media in the form of volatile memory, such as random access memory (RAM) 610, and/or non-volatile memory, such as read only memory (ROM) 612. A basic input/output system (BIOS) 614, containing the basic routines that help to transfer information between elements within computer 602, such as during start-up, is stored in ROM 612. RAM 610 typically contains data and/or program modules that are immediately accessible to and/or presently operated on by the processing unit 604.
Computer 602 may also include other removable/non-removable, volatile/non-volatile computer storage media. By way of example,
The disk drives and their associated computer-readable media provide non-volatile storage of computer-readable instructions, data structures, program modules, and other data for computer 602. Although the example illustrates a hard disk 616, a removable magnetic disk 620, and a removable optical disk 624, it is to be appreciated that other types of computer-readable media which can store data that is accessible by a computer, such as magnetic cassettes or other magnetic storage devices, flash memory cards, CD-ROM, digital versatile disks (DVD) or other optical storage, random access memories (RAM), read only memories (ROM), electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), and the like, can also be utilized to implement the exemplary computing system and environment.
Any number of program modules can be stored on the hard disk 616, magnetic disk 620, optical disk 624, ROM 612, and/or RAM 610, including by way of example, an operating system 626, one or more application programs 628, other program modules 630, and program data 632. Each of such operating system 626, one or more application programs 628, other program modules 630, and program data 632 (or some combination thereof) may implement all or part of the resident components that support the distributed file system. Example of program modules and data is discussed below with reference to
A user can enter commands and information into computer 602 via input devices such as a keyboard 634 and a pointing device 636 (e.g., a "mouse"). Other input devices 638 (not shown specifically) may include a microphone, joystick, game pad, satellite dish, serial port, scanner, and/or the like. These and other input devices are connected to the processing unit 604 via input/output interfaces 640 that are coupled to the system bus 608, but may be connected by other interface and bus structures, such as a parallel port, game port, or a universal serial bus (USB).
A monitor 642 or other type of display device can also be connected to the system bus 608 via an interface, such as a video adapter 644. In addition to the monitor 642, other output peripheral devices can include components such as speakers (not shown) and a printer 646 which can be connected to computer 602 via the input/output interfaces 640.
Computer 602 can operate in a networked environment using logical connections to one or more remote computers, such as a remote computing device 648. By way of example, the remote computing device 648 can be a personal computer, portable computer, a server, a router, a network computer, a peer device or other common network node, game console, and the like. The remote computing device 648 is illustrated as a portable computer that can include many or all of the elements and features described herein relative to computer 602.
Logical connections between computer 602 and the remote computer 648 are depicted as a local area network (LAN) 650 and a general wide area network (WAN) 652. Such networking environments are commonplace in offices, enterprise-wide computer networks, intranets, and the Internet.
When implemented in a LAN networking environment, the computer 602 is connected to a local network 650 via a network interface or adapter 654. When implemented in a WAN networking environment, the computer 602 typically includes a modem 656 or other means for establishing communications over the wide network 652. The modem 656, which can be internal or external to computer 602, can be connected to the system bus 608 via the input/output interfaces 640 or other appropriate mechanisms. It is to be appreciated that the illustrated network connections are exemplary and that other means of establishing communication link(s) between the computers 602 and 648 can be employed.
In a networked environment, such as that illustrated with computing environment 600, program modules depicted relative to the computer 602, or portions thereof, may be stored in a remote memory storage device. By way of example, remote application programs 658 reside on a memory device of remote computer 648. For purposes of illustration, application programs and other executable program components such as the operating system are illustrated herein as discrete blocks, although it is recognized that such programs and components reside at various times in different storage components of the computing device 602, and are executed by the data processor(s) of the computer.
Various modules and techniques may be described herein in the general context of computer-executable instructions, such as program modules, executed by one or more computers or other devices. Generally, program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures, etc. that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. Typically, the functionality of the program modules may be combined or distributed as desired in various implementations.
An implementation of these modules and techniques may be stored on or transmitted across some form of computer-readable media. Computer-readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by a computer. By way of example, and not limitation, computer-readable media may include "computer storage media" and "communications media."
"Computer storage media" includes volatile and non-volatile, removable and non-removable media implemented in any method or technology for storage of information such as computer-readable instructions, data structures, program modules, or other data. Computer storage media includes, but is not limited to, RAM, ROM, EEPROM, flash memory or other memory technology, CD-ROM, digital versatile disks (DVD) or other optical storage, magnetic cassettes, magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to store the desired information and which can be accessed by a computer.
"Communication media" typically includes computer-readable instructions, data structures, program modules, or other data in a modulated data signal, such as carrier wave or other transport mechanism Communication media also includes any information delivery media. The term "modulated data signal" means a signal that has one or more of its characteristics set or changed in such a manner as to encode information in the signal. By way of example, and not limitation, communication media includes wired media such as a wired network or direct-wired connection, and wireless media such as acoustic, RF, infrared, and other wireless media.

Customer Reviews of Rio Forge 512MB Sport MP3 Player
Rio forge mp39/10/2005
I bought a Rio mp3 player a few weeks ago and i have been satisfied with my purchase. How ever when i went to download songs on to it, it took me a while to figure out how. the battery life also isn't as long as i had expected. My earphones have also started to act up. however the Rio itself is really easy to understand. and it is small and sleek looking. i like my Roi a lot.
Very pleased6/28/2005
I upgraded to this player from a Rio Cali, which worked well except for one limitation: It only recognized songs and playlists, not albums. As a result, I had to create a playlist for each CD I ripped to my music library. The Forge overcomes that limitation, and its software makes it much easier to select a dozen CDs from my library at once and copy them to the player. I've got a gigabyte on my player; 512MB internal and a 512MB SD card. The Forge treats both as a single, continuous block of memory. I'm very happy with this player.1 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Works Great6/20/2005
I read a lot of bad write-up's about this product, but I can honestly say I have had a really great experience with it so far. I primarily use the Rio to listen to Audible.com books, and the easy to use bookmarks make listening to multiple books at the same time easy. As for the unit shutting off or resetting all the time, I have not had that problem. The unit did reset itself one time. However, I was down to the very last drop of power in the battery, and I knew it would probably die soon. When I touched fast forward, the backlight came on and zapped the power. However, it was easy to turn the backlight off, and finding my spot in the book again was pretty easy. The only thing I don't like about the unit is it's "belt clip". It really doesn't work very well. It just doesn't hold on very tightly, whether to your belt, or the arm band that comes with the unit. However, I just put the tiny thing in my fanny pack when I run. I have run over 100 miles with it so far, and have only changed the battery once, and have never had it reset or turn off during a run. Again, it's a good unit - give it a try.2 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful

U.K. Regulation Moving to BOE Like 'Old Wine in New Bottles'
June 17 (Bloomberg) -- The U.K. government plan to abolish the Financial Services Authority and give most of its power to the Bank of England won't change how banks are regulated as the European Union assumes a larger role, lawyers say.
Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne last night said he would replace the regulator with three bodies over the next two years. Osborne blamed the old system set up by Gordon Brown in 1997 for failing to prevent the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, which led to bailouts of Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc and Lloyds Banking Group Plc.
The European Union is planning a revamp of financial regulation that will see the creation of three pan-European regulators for banks, securities and insurance. The new European regulators may dictate to national agencies the future direction of bank supervision, lawyers said.
"It is incapable of making any difference because the fundamental rules are being driven by Brussels," said Simon Morris, a lawyer with CMS Cameron McKenna in London. "It's simply a rebranding, it's like pouring old wine in new bottles."
A Financial Policy Committee at the bank and a consumer protection and markets agency will also be created, Osborne said in a speech in London's financial district last night. Legislation will be in place by 2012 to create the new system, he said.
A Prudential Regulatory Authority to oversee U.K. banks will be set up as a subsidiary of the central bank.
'Alphabet Soup'
The FSA's enforcement unit, which prosecutes insider trading and market abuse, will be combined with the Serious Fraud Office and the Office of Fair Trading to create an economic crime agency.
"What George Osborne is offering is a return to the alphabet soup of 15 years ago, where you have a multiplicity of regulators," Morris said. "One hopes that the next crisis will be sufficiently distant so that the architect is not still redrawing the plans when the thunderclouds break."
The EU said last year that it would propose three financial regulatory agencies with broad powers to cope with the financial crisis. The European Supervisory Authorities would have the ability to overrule national regulators by asking the European Commission in Brussels, the EU's executive arm, to rein in those that don't comply with their recommendations.
The UK regulator's role will be to implement and police the EU directives, Morris said.
No 'Big Changes'
"It's not going to make big changes to the laws and regulations, most derive from European Union directives, which the U.K. has to be compliant with anyway," said Arun Srivastava, a partner at Baker & McKenzie in London. "It may bring about the alignment of macro prudential and micro prudential supervision, and it may bring about a change in the culture of regulation and supervision."
Hector Sants, the chief executive officer of the FSA, will stay on to head the new Prudential Regulatory Authority.
Adair Turner said his role as FSA chairman will cease to exist when the regulator disappears and that he doesn't expect to go to the Bank of England. The restructured body has to do a better job of taking on institutional views about the economic outlook, Turner told BBC Radio 4's "Today" show.
Osborne's plan scraps Brown's tripartite system of regulation -- in which the central bank, FSA and Treasury shared responsibilities -- and places most of the onus on Bank of England Governor Mervyn King.
King will "take a much more proactive hand in monitoring and policing the banks' behavior," said Andrew Lim, an analyst at Matrix Corporate Capital LLP in London.
"King is proactive, he is going to be completely on top of everything," Lim said. "It is like having a matron at hand."
