CipherTrace: automatic detection of ciphers from execution traces by Hassanin, MA

“…Generally, the detection and identification of cryptographic functions, routines, or algorithms facilitates malware analysis and forensics. However, most of the attempts presented in the literature have basically followed a top-down approach, which (by design) has limited them, as they are mainly focused on detecting certain implementations, rather than the building blocks, elements, or ingredients of cryptography in general. …”

Effect of geometry on temporal development of quasi-1D jet scour by Tan, Ian Haoyang

“…It was also observed that both dse and time to reach equilibrium (te) increase when L was increased due to a larger erodible bed volume which facilitates better vortex formation. A quasi-1D jet scour was also found to achieve the equilibrium phase 90 times faster as compared to a 2D scour. …”
