Optimized GPU algorithms for sparse data problems by Pham, Nguyen Quang Anh

“…Many sparse datasets are large, and require parallel computing to process efficiently. But sparsity leads to a number of performance challenges. Irregularities in the size and distribution of data leads to load imbalance between threads and scattered memory accesses that strain memory systems optimized for block based accesses. …”

Practical pseudo-collisions for hash functions ARIRANG-224/384 by Guo, Jian, Matusiewicz, Krystian, Knudsen, Lars R., Ling, San, Wang, Huaxiong

“…We use this approach to find near-collisions with Hamming weight 32 for the full compression function as well as collisions for the compression function of ARIRANG reduced to 26 rounds, both with complexity close to 20 and memory requirements of only a few words.We use near collisions for the compression function to construct pseudo-collisions for the complete hash functions ARIRANG-224 and ARIRANG-384 with complexity 223 and close to 20, respectively.We implemented the attacks and provide examples of appropriate pairs of H,M values. …”
