SGER: Massively Parallel Secure Fault Tolerant Systems for Optical Storage and Transmission of Data

这是一项要求考虑授予探索性研究小额赠款(SGER)的提案。这项提议描述了一项为期一年的活动，在该活动中，国际和平研究所将利用光学的并行性、大带宽和互连的优势，对针对光电子和光学系统量身定做的安全信息系统进行调查。通过使用光电A/D和干涉测量方法对安全数据进行适当编码，加密的数据可以通过光或电子网络安全地发送。在光学上使用多个自由度的多维按键增加了破解密码的数学可能性。潜在的应用包括保护信息资产、数据库安全、来自远程站点的个人验证和身份识别、文件安全和监视。建议的工作是为了验证光学编码技术的可行性。

9908818JavidiThis is a proposal requesting consideration for a Small Grant for Exploratory Research (SGER) award. This proposal describes a one-year activity in which the PI will conduct investigations on secure information systems tailored to optoelectronic and optical systems by taking the advantage of the parallelism, large bandwidth and interconnections of optics. By properly encoding of secure data using optoelectronic A/D and interferometric methods, the encrypted data can be sent over the optical or electronic networks securely. Multi-dimensional keys using many degrees of freedom in optics increases the number of mathematical possibilities to break a code. Potential applications include protection of information assets, database security, personal verification and identification from remote sites, document security and surveillance. The proposed work is to demonstrate the feasibility of the optical encoding techniques.***
