Don't have all the information? In the quantum world, that doesn't matter
(PhysOrg.com) -- When it comes to the rules of the quantum world, it seems that almost everything goes against intuition. In the case of the way ignorance of the whole implies ignorance of at least one of its parts, the situation ...
Rivest unlocks cryptography's past, looks toward future
The most widely used cryptographic system today may eventually be vulnerable, said computer science professor Ronald Rivest -- one of the system's primary creators -- but even if it fails, new systems are ...
