    R&D Centre for Mobile Applications (RDC) FEE, Dept of Telecommunications Engineering Czech Technical University in Prague RDC Technical Report TR-13-4 Internship report Evaluation of Compressibility of the Output of the Information-Concealing Algorithm Julien Mamelli, [email protected] 2nd year student at the Ecole´ des Mines d'Al`es (N^ımes,France) Internship supervisor: Luk´aˇsKencl, [email protected] August 2013 Abstract Compression is a key element to exchange files over the Internet. By generating re- dundancies, the concealing algorithm proposed by Kencl and Loebl [?], appears at first glance to be particularly designed to be combined with a compression scheme [?]. Is the output of the concealing algorithm actually compressible? We have tried 16 compression techniques on 1 120 files, and the result is that we have not found a solution which could advantageously use repetitions of the concealing method. Acknowledgments I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor, Dr Luk´aˇsKencl, for his guidance and expertise throughout the course of this work. I would like to thank Prof. Robert Beˇst´akand Mr Pierre Runtz, for giving me the opportunity to carry out my internship at the Czech Technical University in Prague. I would also like to thank all the members of the Research and Development Center for Mobile Applications as well as my colleagues for the assistance they have given me during this period. 1 Contents 1 Introduction 3 2 Related Work 4 2.1 Information concealing method . 4 2.2 Archive formats . 5 2.3 Compression algorithms . 5 2.3.1 Lempel-Ziv algorithm .

Do not cite this document as a requirement. AMSC: N/A AREA SESS DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT A. Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. Downloaded from http://www.everyspec.com MIL-HDBK-1760A FOREWORD 1. This handbook was developed by a team including members from the three U.S. military services, the UK MOD, the SAE AS-1B committee, and contractors. It includes information previously published in document ASD-TR-87-5028 with certain elements of ASD-TR-91-5009. Some of this information was also published in DEF-STAN-00-69 (Part II), which is written around MIL-STD-1760B. This revision of this handbook is written around MIL-STD-1760D and assumes that the reader is also reading 1760D. 2. This handbook provides information on the implementation of a standardized electrical interconnection system, as defined by MIL-STD-1760, into both current and future aircraft and stores. It provides guidance on design considerations and options for including the standard interface capability at the aircraft's store stations and for providing a common electrical interface on carriage stores and mission stores. As a handbook, it cannot be invoked as a requirement in a contract. 3. Trends in weapon system designs (aircraft and stores) caused concern over the general proliferation of aircraft-to-store electrical interfacing requirements and the resulting high cost to achieve interoperability between aircraft and stores.

Michael ‘Goose’ Zuhlsdorf, 11th Wing and Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling commander. “Exactly like the squadron commanders that I have here on base, I wanted leaders that would make great teammates for us and we would make great teammates for them.” The first class included sixteen new honorary commanders and an emeritus commander who had been with the U.S. Air Force Band since the band’s time with 316th Wing at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland: -11th Wing Commander: Col.

  • AIR FORCE Magazine / July 2007 42
    A Brush With the Air Force 42 AIR FORCE Magazine / July 2007 prototype for Corkin was Air Force Col. Milton Caniff was out front with “Terry and Philip Cochran, a noted World War II pilot and leader of air commandos in the Pirates,” but other cartoonists also found Burma. (See “The All-American Air- their calling in the wild blue yonder. man,” March 2000, p. 52.) He became a continuing character in “Terry.” In a famous “Terry and the Pirates” Sunday page from 1943, Corkin opened with, “Let’s take a walk, Terry,” and then delivered an inspirational talk about A Brush With the war and the Air Force as he and the newly fledged pilot Terry strolled around the flight line. The page was “read” into the Congressional Record and reported in the newspapers. Terry, Flip, and their colleagues had a great following among airmen, and the Air Force By John T. Correll the strip had considerable morale and public relations value. Gen. Henry H. “Hap” Arnold, Chief of the Army Air Forces, assigned an officer to as- sist Caniff with any technical details he needed. Caniff produced another strip, “Male Call,” without charge for camp and base newspapers. It featured Miss Lace, who was reminiscent of the Dragon Lady but less standoffish. It is difficult today to comprehend what a big deal the funnies used to be. Everybody read the comic strips. Characters were as well known as movie stars. The strips were printed much larger than present comic strips are. On Sunday, a popular strip might get a whole color page to itself.

Although digital steganography is commonly used to hide data inside multimedia files, a similar approach can be used to hide data in archives as well.
