  2. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    A universal hashing scheme is a randomized algorithm that selects a hash function h among a family of such functions, in such a way that the probability of a collision of any two distinct keys is 1/m, where m is the number of distinct hash values desired—independently of the two keys. Universal hashing ensures (in a probabilistic sense) that ...

  4. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    Here the index can be computed as some range of bits of the hash function. On the other hand, some hashing algorithms prefer to have the size be a prime number. [19] For open addressing schemes, the hash function should also avoid clustering, the mapping of two or more keys to consecutive slots. Such clustering may cause the lookup cost to ...

  5. Dynamic perfect hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_perfect_hashing

    In computer science, dynamic perfect hashing is a programming technique for resolving collisions in a hash table data structure. [1] [2] [3] While more memory-intensive than its hash table counterparts, [citation needed] this technique is useful for situations where fast queries, insertions, and deletions must be made on a large set of elements.

  6. Comparison of cryptographic hash functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of...

    The following tables compare general and technical information for a number of cryptographic hash functions. See the individual functions' articles for further information. This article is not all-inclusive or necessarily up-to-date. An overview of hash function security/cryptanalysis can be found at hash function security summary.

  7. Hash collision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_collision

    John Smith and Sandra Dee share the same hash value of 02, causing a hash collision. In computer science, a hash collision or hash clash [1] is when two distinct pieces of data in a hash table share the same hash value. The hash value in this case is derived from a hash function which takes a data input and returns a fixed length of bits. [2]

  8. Hash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash

    Hash table, a data structure using hash functions; Cryptographic hash function, a hash function used to authenticate message integrity; URI fragment, in computer hypertext, a string of characters that refers to a subordinate resource; Geohash, a spatial data structure which subdivides space into buckets of grid shape

  9. SHA-3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-3

    SHA-3 (Secure Hash Algorithm 3) is the latest [4] member of the Secure Hash Algorithm family of standards, released by NIST on August 5, 2015. [5] [6] [7] Although part of the same series of standards, SHA-3 is internally different from the MD5-like structure of SHA-1 and SHA-2.
