In this paper we investigate the strength of the secret-key algorithm RC5 proposed by Ron Rivest. The target version of RC5 works on words of 32 bits, has 12 rounds and a user-selected key of 128 bits. Kaliski and Yin estimated the strength of RC5 by differential and linear cryptanalysis. They conje

The paper describes a distributed brute-force attack on RC5 cipher using Java applets. It introduces a novel model for long-term parallel computing based on the abstraction of solvers with limited lifetime. The associated problems and scheduling policy are discussed. The paper comments on the inhere
"When dark comet UD3 was spotted near Jupiter's orbit, its existence was largely ignored. But to individuals who knew better -- scientists like Benjamin Schwartz, manager of NASA's Center for Near-Earth Object Studies -- the threat this eight-kilometer comet posed to the survival of the human race w
