  2. Aristocrat Cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aristocrat_Cipher

    The Aristocrat Cipher is a type of monoalphabetic substitution cipher in which plaintext is replaced with ciphertext and encoded into assorted letters, numbers, and symbols based on a keyword. The formatting of these ciphers generally includes a title, letter frequency, keyword indicators, and the encoder's nom de plume . [ 1 ]

  3. Concorde TSP Solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concorde_TSP_Solver

    According to Mulder & Wunsch (2003), Concorde “is widely regarded as the fastest TSP solver, for large instances, currently in existence.” In 2001, Concorde won a 5000 guilder prize from CMG for solving a vehicle routing problem the company had posed in 1996. [7] Concorde requires a linear programming solver and only supports QSopt [8] and ...

  4. Cryptogram - Wikipedia

    To solve the puzzle, one must recover the original lettering. Though once used in more serious applications, they are now mainly printed for entertainment in newspapers and magazines. Other types of classical ciphers are sometimes used to create cryptograms. An example is the book cipher, where a book or article is used to encrypt a message.

  5. SAT solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAT_solver

    In computer science and formal methods, a SAT solver is a computer program which aims to solve the Boolean satisfiability problem.On input a formula over Boolean variables, such as "(x or y) and (x or not y)", a SAT solver outputs whether the formula is satisfiable, meaning that there are possible values of x and y which make the formula true, or unsatisfiable, meaning that there are no such ...

  6. Substitution cipher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_cipher

    In cryptography, a substitution cipher is a method of encrypting in which units of plaintext are replaced with the ciphertext, in a defined manner, with the help of a key; the "units" may be single letters (the most common), pairs of letters, triplets of letters, mixtures of the above, and so forth.

  7. RSA problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA_problem

    The most efficient method known to solve the RSA problem is by first factoring the modulus N, a task believed to be impractical if N is sufficiently large (see integer factorization). The RSA key setup routine already turns the public exponent e , with this prime factorization, into the private exponent d , and so exactly the same algorithm ...

  8. Merkle's Puzzles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkle's_Puzzles

    This is the symmetrical key Y", where X is a randomly generated identifier, and Y is a randomly generated secret key meant for symmetrical encryption. Hence, both X and Y are unique to each message. All the messages are encrypted in a way such that a user may conduct a brute force attack on each message with some difficulty.

  9. Unbalanced oil and vinegar scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unbalanced_oil_and_vinegar...

    The mathematical problem is to solve equations with variables. The whole equations system is the public key. To use a mathematical problem for cryptography, it must be modified. The computing of the variables would need a lot of resources. A standard computer isn't able to compute this in an acceptable time.
