Digital Signature Scheme for Image
Abstract: : Image authentication techniques have currently added great consideration due to its importance for a large number of multimedia applications. Digital images are progressively communicated over non-secure channels such as the Internet. Therefore, military, medical and quality control images must be protected against attempts to manipulate them; such manipulations could tamper the decisions based on these images. To protect the authenticity of multimedia images, several approaches have been proposed. These …

Monitoring Nature of Nairobi City Land Features from Landsat 5 Images Using Index-Based Mapping
Abstract: Urban environments are complex and heterogeneous ecosystems characterized by mixed land use and land cover (LULC). They form important centers of social integration and generation of national wealth. However, urban areas especially in developing countries suffer from poor planning; mismanagement and uncoordination. Evaluation of dynamics driven by LULC changes in these ecosystems is key in management of urban areas. In evaluating urban environments, land use and land cover mapping using …

Industrial Revolution – A Transition for or Against Mission of Arts and Crafts Movement
Abstract: Art and Crafts movement began primarily as a search for authentic and meaningful styles as a reaction to the soulless machine-made production. The legendaries consider machine to be the root cause of reducing the role of artists and architects in the society. Industrial Revolution was a response to shift from labor intensive economy to capital intensive economy. Quantum production happened due to Industrial revolution, increasing socio economic conditions (Crawford, 1997). …

A Public Key Cryptosystem Based on Discrete Logarithm Problem
Abstract: In this paper, we formulate another discrete logarithm problem (ADLP) and designed a new public key cryptosystem (PKC). We also proved, this ADLP involves some old DLPs (ODLP) but the complexity of our proposed DLP is different from the ODLP. Thus, the security is better as compare to the ODLP based PKCs.
