Information hiding using AES algorithm and audio steganography

Nowadays, information security is a more important topic in ICT and related to all areas. Cryptography is the science that studies a wide range of issues in the transmission and safeguarding of information. Steganography is the art and science of embedding hidden messages in such a way that no one knows the existence of the message in the cover media file. This paper presents a combination of cryptography and steganography to hide information in the cover media file. In the cryptography part, AES algorithm is chosen and the audio file is used as a cover media file in steganography part. In this paper, the information is encrypted firstly and then encrypted texts are hidden into an audio file. The use of one secret key and cover media file is more secure than the use of one secret key. The first key is used for message encryption and the second audio file is applied as cover media file for information hiding.

Text steganography in Letter of Credit (LC) using synonym substitution based algorithm

Text steganography uses text files as carrier files to hide confidential information. The goal of text steganography is to make the hidden data undetectable except the sender and receiver. This paper focuses on semantic-based text steganography. It hides confidential information by replacing words with their synonyms (same meanings). In international trading processes, products are imported and exported between foreign countries, in this case, the sellers and the buyers do not know each other. Therefore, the seller has a number of risks such as credit risk and legal risk caused by the distance. Letter of credit (LC) has been used to solve these risks. In the modern age, LC information has been sent online. Therefore, the security of LC information has become an important role. Most of the bank’s LC information is sent via SWIFT message, email or message formats. Using these types of message does not secure the LC information. This paper implements synonym substitution based algorithm to make confidential LC information more secure. This system is implemented by using Java software development kit (J2SE 7).

Review Paper

Prevention for cancer diseases associated with vegetables

Vegetables are important for human health because of their vitamins, minerals, phytochemical compounds, and dietary fiber content. Especially antioxidant vitamins (vitamins A, vitamins C, and vitamins E) and dietary fiber content have important roles in human health. Adequate vegetable consumption can be protective of some chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer, obesity, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, as well as improve risk factors related to these diseases. Fruits and vegetables are universally promoted as healthy. Fruits and vegetables include a diverse group of plant foods that vary greatly in the content of energy and nutrients. Fruits and vegetables also supply vitamins and minerals to the diet and are sources of phytochemicals that function as antioxidants, phytoestrogens, and antiinflammatory agents and through other protective mechanisms. Multivitamins may slightly reduce the risk of cancer but don’t prevent heart disease. There is a wealth of data available within the health care system. Advanced data mining techniques can help medial situations. The Harvard-Led Physicians Health Study II (PHS II) recently found that taking a multivitamin slightly lowers the risk of being diagnosed with cancer. Fruits and vegetables contain many biologically active ingredients that may help to prevent cancer in ways that vitamins and minerals alone do not. The PHS II was the first study to test a standard multivitamin for the prevention of chronic disease. The cardiovascular disease portion of the study focused on whether taking a multivitamin reduced the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and death from cardiovascular disease. It’s important not to overplay the benefit that PHS II found for preventing cancer. What you eat and don’t eat can have a powerful effect on your health, including your risk for cancer. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to clarify these associations.

Strategies for developing the reading skill through effective reading practices

This research paper mainly focuses on developing the reading skills of the third year students at the Computer University, Kalay, Burma. As reading is the most common skill, effective uses of practice reading strategies engage learners resulting in competence in fluency and meaningful depiction of literary texts. The knowledge of reading in a foreign language is important for the students to take the responsibilities for their own learning and to use the acquired reading strategies to tackle the various kinds of texts both inside and outside the class. In this paper, some various effective techniques are mentioned to improve the students’ abilities of reading. The important factors of the reading skills are showed to improve students’ reading speed and to catch the general meaning of the massage. Through needs analysis survey, needs, lacks, wants and attitudes of various students and teachers can be found out. It is hoped that this paper can give some insights into the difficulties faced by students and teachers who have no idea how to train students to be efficient and flexible readers and help the students make good use of their reading skill and how to handle it in the most effective way throughout their studies.

Compare the data confidentiality approach to Short Message Services (SMS) using RC4 and AES algorithms

Todays, short messages service (SMS) still represents the foremost used mobile electronic messaging service. SMS messages are employed in many various applications, even in cases wherever safety features, like authentication and confidentiality between the communications, should be ensured. Unfortunately, SMS technology doesn’t give inbuilt support for any safety features. Hence the secured communication on SMS could be a big challenge. In this work, we use the communication between peers is secured by using public-key cryptography. It includes SMS network architecture as well as cryptographic protocols as a theoretical background and it also deals with design, implementation and confidentiality assessment of RC4 stream cipher for SMS data confidentiality on mobile networks. To secure the message, the receiver needs to put a password. In the paper, we compare the RC4 and RSA algorithm for data confidentiality on SMS.

Replacing same meaning in sentences using natural language understanding

NLP ( Natural Language Processing ) can be used to communicate with computers by means of intelligence methods in a natural language. In other words, it is very useful for classification and analysis. Although there are many natural language syntax analyzers that existed before, it still remains to fulfill the requirements for analyzing English text for English to English Machine Translation. In this paper, we have proposed a chunk based analyzer for English to English Machine Translation System. The keyword search Technique is one of the techniques of Natural Language Understanding. A simple keyword based matching technique is used for classification. Domain-specific dictionaries of keywords are used to reduce the dimensionality of feature space. The output result is that the word matched to a known word will be replaced in the given sentence, which will not be changed the original meaning.

Teaching integer representations utilizing MATLAB

We teach the first-year students of computer university in Myanmar about the relationships between different sorts of numbers in Discrete Mathematics. In this paper, we discuss ways in which computer technology can be used to learn integer representations of number theory in discrete mathematics. In today’s world, the computing component is essential in every applied math courses. While students come from various programming background using different programming languages, it is more practical to use a single computing language throughout the course. MATLAB is a helpful software for mathematical computation. This is the best idea to learn integer representation problems by using computer programming. It is important to get theory skills and knowledge of viewing practical testing. Traditionally, covering the theory is needed to do practical working.
