Abstract:

With the power that has taken the information technologies, one has developed the study and research about cryptography, and cryptanalysis, in which Latin squares are ideal candidates for being used in cryptographic systems because the Cayley tables of the nite groups are Latin squares. This fact has awakened a new interest in the study of Latin squares by applying them to the study of code theory and error correcting codes. They also play a significant role in the statistical theory of experimental design. In this work, we develop an algorithm for the generation of Latin squares based on the

Abstract:

Summary Latin square designs are often employed in animal experiments to minimize the number of animals required to detect statistical differences. Generally, potential carryover effects are not balanced out by randomization. Systemic methods are available for equalizing the residual effects. We have developed an Excel® spreadsheet-based program, the Balanced Latin Square Designer (BLSD), to facilitate the generation of Latin squares balanced for carryover effects. The program allows a user to input the number of treatments that is equal to the number of animals and periods in a square. A user

Abstract:

Many security-related scenarios including cryptography depend on the random generation of passwords, permutations, Latin squares, CAPTCHAs and other types of non-numerical entities. Random generation of each entity type is a different problem with different solutions. This study is an attempt at a unified solution for all of the mentioned problems. This paper is the first of its kind to pose, formulate, analyze and solve the problem of random object generation as the general problem of generating random non-numerical entities. We examine solving the problem via connecting it to the well-studie

Abstract:

This communication provides a discussion of a scheme originally proposed by Falcón in a paper entitled “Latin squares associated to principal autotopisms of long cycles. Applications in cryptography”. Falcón outlines the protocol for a cryptographical scheme that uses the F-critical sets associated with a particular Latin square to generate access levels for participants of the scheme. Accompanying the scheme is an example, which applies the protocol to a particular Latin square of order six. Exploration of the example itself, revealed some interesting observations about both the structure of

Abstract:

This paper presents a general method of constructing a complete set of Mutually Orthogonal Latin Squares (MOLS) of the order of any prime, via the use of generating functions dened on the nite eld of this order. Apart from using the generating function to get a complete set of Mutually Orthogonal Latin Squares, the studies of the generating functions opens up the possibility of getting at the deep structural properties of MOLS. Copious examples were given for detailed illustrations.

Abstract:

Superimposed codes is a special combinatorial structure that has many applications in information theory, data communication and cryptography. On the other hand, mutually orthogonal latin squares is a beautiful combinatorial object that has deep connection with design theory. In this paper, we draw a connection between these two structures. We give explicit construction of mutually orthogonal latin squares and we show a method of generating new larger superimposed codes from an existing one by using mutually orthogonal latin squares.

Abstract:

This thesis considers problems concerning Latin squares and sets of mutually quasiorthogonal Latin squares (MQOLS). We show how MQOLS are related to a number of other designs and establish bounds on Nq(n), the maximum number of Latin squares of order n in a mutually quasi-orthogonal set. We report the number of quasi-complete mappings admitted by each group of order 15 or less, and explain the surprising result that each of the non-cyclic groups of order 8 possesses exactly 384 complete mappings. For each group G of order 15 or less, we identify the sizes of all maximal sets of mutually orthog

Abstract:

Let n be a positive integer. A Latin square of order n is an n×n array L such that each element of some n-set occurs in each row and in each column of L exactly once. It is well-known that one may construct a 4-class association scheme on the positions of a Latin square, where the relations are the identity, being in the same row, being in the same column, having the same entry, and everything else. We describe the subconstituent (Terwilliger) algebras of such an association scheme. One also may construct several strongly regular graphs on the positions of a Latin square, where adjacency corre

Abstract:

The study provides details on distribution networks, access to finance, type of technologies and incidence on policies for the development and scaling up of models led by private entrepreneurs committed to providing electricity to the last mile population in Latin America. This ideal scenario is strengthened by the recent Paris climate change agreement which seeks to increase international aid to support the transfer of sustainable technologies and the generation of resilience tools for climate change.

Abstract:

In the next decades, the evolution of the power sector in the region will be based on a combination of large-scale and centralized power plants, distributed generation, and even isolated microgrids. Storage technologies will be crucial to enable the management of the intrinsic variability of some renewable generation (wind and solar), particularly in scenarios where there is a need to reduce fossil fuels used for base generation. Pumped Storage Hydropower (PSH) technologies are an attractive alternative, given the regions hydropower potential, existing installed capacity, and technical knowled

Abstract:

The key question the research in this paper tries to answer is whether those four activities truly represent a viable economic alternative in Latin America's environmentally fragile hinterlands. Several cases in each line of activity are analyzed to determine the level and distribution of the net financial returns they generate. Special attention was devoted to examining the degree to which net returns flow to local populations, as opposed to other economic agents. In general, examination of the rewards local populations can expect to derive from ecotourism and the harvesting of nontimber fore

Abstract:

Economic theory and econometric evidence support the thesis that the displacement of government expenditures on public goods by subsidies to private goods inhibits the performance of the farm sector. This paper presents an analysis of the influence of the mix of expenditures related to agriculture on net income generation, using data for 19 Latin American and Caribbean countries during 1985-2012. The econometric results demonstrate that total government spending on the farm sector positively impacts agriculture's performance. More importantly, and of greater practical economic significance, in
