TLDR
A new technique for generating a message authentication code (MAC) using a simple metaphor to (noncryptographically) hash a string x, cast each of its words into a small number of buckets, and collect up all the buckets' contents.
Abstract
We introduce a new technique for generating a message authentication code (MAC). At its center is a simple metaphor: to (noncryptographically) hash a string x, cast each of its words into a small number of buckets; xor the contents of each bucket; then collect up all the buckets' contents. Used in the context of Wegman-Carter authentication, this style of hash function provides the fastest known approach to software message authentication.

Incremental Cryptography Revisited: PRFs, Nonces and Modular Design

TL;DR: The first definitions and constructions for incremental pseudo-random functions (IPRFs) are given, and the movement from randomized or stateful schemes to nonce based ones, and from UF (unforgeability) to PRF security, are brought up to speed with the broader field of symmetric cryptography itself.

MISRs for Fast Authentication of Long Messages

TL;DR: This paper uses a pseudorandom function along with an MISR to generate a message authentication code (MAC) that is provably secure and compares the software and hardware implementation of the MAC with other schemes.

On almost-universal multilinear modular hashing with composite moduli

TL;DR: Universal hashing, discovered by Carter and Wegman in 1979, has many applications in computer science, for example, in cryptography, randomized algorithms, dictionary data structures etc.

The MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm

TL;DR: This document describes the MD5 message-digest algorithm, which takes as input a message of arbitrary length and produces as output a 128-bit "fingerprint" or "message digest" of the input.

A digital signature scheme secure against adaptive chosen-message attacks

TL;DR: A digital signature scheme based on the computational difficulty of integer factorization possesses the novel property of being robust against an adaptive chosen-message attack: an adversary who receives signatures for messages of his choice cannot later forge the signature of even a single additional message.
