We study the structural properties of networks formed by random sets of bit strings-namely the ordered arrays of binary variables representing, for instance, genetic information or cultural profiles. Two bit strings are connected by a network link when they are sufficiently similar to each other, i.e.

In this paper, we propose what we believe to be the first proof-of-principle experimental demonstration of free space SQKD based on the single-state protocol, which is equipped with polarization encoding scheme employing the method of selective modulation. During the half-hour test time for each operation, the overall experiment obtained the original key rate of 107.

Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) have emerged as a favorable hardware security primitive, they exploit the process variations to provide unique signatures or secret keys amidst other critical cryptographic applications. CMOS-based PUFs are the most popular type, they generate unique bit strings using process variations in semiconductor fabrication. However, most existing CMOS PUFs are found to be vulnerable to modeling attacks based on machine learning (ML) algorithms.

The colloid cellular automata do not imitate the physical structure of colloids but are governed by logical functions derived from them. We analyze the space-time complexity of Boolean circuits derived from the electrical responses of colloids-specifically ZnO (zinc oxide, an inorganic compound also known as calamine or zinc white, which naturally occurs as the mineral zincite), proteinoids (microspheres and crystals of thermal abiotic proteins), and their combinations in response to electrical stimulation. To extract Boolean circuits from colloids, we send all possible configurations of two-, four-, and eight-bit binary strings, encoded as electrical potential values, to the colloids, record their responses, and infer the Boolean functions they implement.
