Springerbriefs in Mathematics: Cryptography with Shrinking Generators: Fundamentals and Applications of Keystream Sequence Generators Based on Irregular Decimation (Paperback)

This book offers a broad survey of all information made public - from 1993 until today - on keystream sequence generators based on irregular decimation, which are referred to as shrinking generators.

Starting with an overview of cryptography, it describes each type of generator - shrinking, self-shrinking, modified self-shrinking, generalized self-shrinking and the DECIM algorithm - with examples and references.
