Dynamical degradation occurs when chaotic systems are implemented on digital devices, which seriously threatens the security of chaos-based cryptosystems. The existing solutions mainly focus on the compensation of dynamical properties rather than on...
The heavy use of digital images across network systems has become a major concern regarding data confidentiality and unauthorized access. Conventional image encryption techniques hardly achieve high security levels efficiently, especially in real-tim...
Saccharomyces cerevisiae remains the baker’s yeast of choice in the baking industry. However, its ability to ferment cereal flour sugars and accumulate CO2 as a principal role of yeast in baking is not as unique as previously thought decades ago. The...
A first aim of the present work is the determination of the actual sources of the “finite precision error” generation and accumulation in two important algorithms: Bernoulli’s map and the folded Baker’s map. These two computational schemes attract th...
We present basic differences in the musculoskeletal ultrasound examinations between adults and children. Examiners who deal with adults on a daily basis have shared concerns about examining children. Such concerns may arise from the different approac...
