Algebraic immunity is a cryptographic criterion for Boolean functions used in cryptosystem to resist algebraic attacks. They usually should have high algebraic immunity. Chen proposed a first order recursive construction of Boolean functions and checked that they had optimum algebraic immunity for n<8.This paper gives a detail proof of having optimum algebraic and being balanced for all n>0.

일방성 해쉬함수는 임의 길이의 입력메세지를 일정한 길이의 출력메세지로 축약하는 함수로서, 디지탈서명에서 서명을 생성하는 시간을 단축하고 메세지 인증을 위한 암호학적 도구로 사용되고있다. 본 논문에서는 부울함수를 기초로 하는 해쉬함수 중에서 MD5의 부울함수를 정보이론의 관점에서 분석하여 암호학적으로 강하고 기존의 MD5에서 사용된 부울함수의 성질을 이용한 공격을 막을 수 있는 새로운 부울함수를 제안한다.

This paper was aimed to, using a new data structure, develop a set of algorithms to execute the output function of Digital System. These functions were represented as directed, acyclic graphs. by applying many restrictions on vertices on graph, the efficient manipulation of boolean function was accomplished. The results were as follows; 1. A canonical representation of a boolean function was created by the reduction algorithm. 2. The operation of two functions was accomplished using t he apply algorithm, according to the binary operator. 3. The arguments having 1 as the value nf function were enumerated using the satisfy algorithm. 4. Composing TTL 74181 4-bit ALU and 74182 look-ahead carry generator, the ALU having 4-bit and 16-bit as word size was implemented.
