IV054 Codes, Cryptography and Cryptographical Protocols - 2017

Prof. Jozef Gruska, DrSc

Wendesday, 10.00-11.40, D2

Information and materials to the lecture (sylabus v IS).

ASSIGNMENTS: An important component of the lecture are home exercises - for the first 10 lectures. They will be posted always the day before the lecture, that is on TUESDAYS, at 18.00. Conditions for submiting and evaluation of exercices, as well as for exams and "zapocet". More points one gets from exercises more easy will be final exam.

TUTORIALS: For the course IV054 there will be held regularly also not obligatory tutorials/seminars.

The goal of tutorials/seminars will be to make more clear topics discussed during the lecture as well as some of its (especially mathematical) requirements.

First of tutorials will be in Czech with RNDr Matej Pivoluska, PhD. First of them will be on Wendesday September 21 at ??.00 in B204.

Second tutorial will be in English and again with Mgr. Ludek Matyska and RNDr. Matej Pivoluska PhD First of them will be on Wednesday, September 21 at 16.00-18.00 in B204.

Appendix!!!!!: The materials to the course contains in addition to slides of the lectures also an Appendix. It is much recomended to all registered for the course to look first, before lectures start, to the Appendix for a review of some basic concepts and facts from algebra and discrete mathematics that will be used in the course. This is of importance especially for those who do not feel very good in these areas.

Slides and exercises

Slides for future lectures accessible bellow and denoted as old are from the course given in 2016. Modified and/or updated version of the slides will be usualy posted the day before the lecture and also after the lecture.

Perhaps the most effective way to deal with the course is to print new slides just before the lecture, to read them, and then, during the lecture to write into the printed version of the slides various comments and/or explanations. Concerning exercises of interest and usefulness for you be "Exercise-book" that contains about 100 exercises from previous years and their solutions. Excercise book can be uploaded from http://www.fi.muni.cz/~xbohac/crypto/exercise-book.pdf
