Computational geometry concerns itself with designing and analyzing algorithms for solving geometric problems. The field has reached a high level of sophistication, and very complicated algorithms have been designed.However, it is also useful to develop more practical algorithms, so long as they are based on rigorous methods. One such method is the use of randomized algorithms. These algorithms have become more and more popular, turning...

This work presents recent developments in hashing algorithm design. Hashing is the process of creating a short digest (i.e., 64 bits) for a message of arbitrary length, for exam- ple 20 Mbytes. Hashing algorithms were first used for sear- ching records in databases, they are central for digital si- gnature applications and are used for authentication without secrecy. Covering all practical and theoretical issues related to the design of...
