In an implementation of the ElGamal cryptosystem, is it acceptable to always
use the same prime and generator for every transmission? Or should a new
prime/generator pair be chosen for each communication?
Also does anyone know of where I can find suitable parameters to test the
system with ?
Does anyone know if any research has been done into the use of cellular
automata as one way functions? or even into the reversing of CAs?
