In this paper, we propose an algorithm for one-way hash function construction based on the chaotic look-up table with changeable parameter. First, the original message with padding is divided into block messages as groups and then further broken into sub-block messages, which are translated into corresponding ASCII codes by groups. Then the group ASCII codes are successively inputted into the chaotic look-up table updated by changeable parameter to permute corresponding values. Finally, based on the calculation of the values, 128-bit hash value is generated. Performance analysis indicates that our proposed algorithm satisfies sensitive requirements and can resist all kinds of attacks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A parallel Hash algorithm construction based on chaotic maps with changeable parameters is proposed and analyzed in this paper. The two main characteristics of the proposed algorithm are parallel processing mode and message expansion. The algorithm translates the expanded message blocks into the corresponding ASCII code values as the iteration times, iterates the chaotic asymmetric tent map and then the chaotic piecewise linear map, continuously, with changeable parameters dynamically obtained from the position index of the corresponding message blocks, to generate decimal fractions, then rounds the decimal fractions to integers, and finally cascades these integers to construct intermediate Hash value. Final Hash value with the length of 128-bit is generated by logical XOR operation of intermediate Hash values. Theoretical analysis and computer simulation indicate that the proposed algorithm satisfies the performance requirements of a secure Hash function. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Recently, a variety of chaos-based hash functions have been proposed. Nevertheless, none of them works efficiently in parallel computing environment. In this Letter, an algorithm for parallel keyed hash function construction is proposed, whose structure can ensure the uniform sensitivity of hash value to the message. By means of the mechanism of both changeable-parameter and self-synchronization, the keystream establishes a close relation with the algorithm key, the content and the order of each message block. The entire message is modulated into the chaotic iteration orbit, and the coarse-graining trajectory is extracted as the hash value. Theoretical analysis and computer simulation indicate that the proposed algorithm can satisfy the performance requirements of hash function. It is simple, efficient, practicable, and reliable. These properties make it a good choice for hash on parallel computing platform. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

A new parallel chaotic Hash function, based on four-dimensional cellular neural network, is proposed in this paper. The message is expanded by iterating chaotic logistic map and then divided into blocks with a length of 512 bits each. All blocks are processed in a parallel mode, which is one of the significant characteristics of the proposed algorithm. Each 512-bit block is divided into four 128-bit sub-blocks, each of which is further separated into four 32-bit values and then the four values are mixed into four new values generated by chaotic cat map. The obtained four new values are performed by the bit-wise exclusive OR operation with four initial values or previously generated four values, and then, they are used as the inputs of cellular neural network. By iterating cellular neural network, another four values as the middle Hash value are generated. The generated values of all blocks are inputted into the compression function to produce the final 128-bit Hash value. Theoretical analysis and computer simulation indicate that the proposed algorithm satisfies the requirements of a secure Hash function. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
