Abstract: When processing a data conversion function of a MISTY structure, such as the FO function of MISTY1, the logical calculation result t3 of the exclusive OR 614 of the process result of the FI function 602 of the MISTY structure in the second stage and a logical calculation result t1 of an exclusive OR 612 of the MISTY structure in the first stage is not stored in a register. The logical calculation result t3 and the logical calculation result of respective exclusive OR 642 and 643 are subject to a direct exclusive OR with the respective exclusive OR 642 and 643.

Abstract: In a MISTY1 FI function, an exclusive OR to which a round key KIij2 is inputted is arranged between an exclusive OR arranged on a 9-bit critical path in a first MISTY structure and a zero-extend conversion connected to the branching point of a 7-bit right system data path. Then, a 9-bit round key KIij1 is truncate-converted to seven bits, the exclusive OR of the seven bits and the round key KIij1 is calculated by an exclusive OR and the calculation result is inputted to an exclusive OR arranged on the right system data path in the second stage MISTY structure.

Abstract: An encrypting apparatus includes a digest part using a SHA-2 algorithm of which a basic unit of operation is 32*Y (Y=1 or 2) bits. The digest part includes a shift register including a series of registers, and a predetermined number of adders performing an addition operation based on data stored in the shift register. The shift register includes a (32*Y)/X-bit register, where X=2k (k is an integer such that 1?k?4 when Y=1 and 1?k?5 when Y=2). Each of the adders has a data width of (32*Y)/X bits and performs the addition operation in each cycle in which the data stored in the shift register is shifted between the registers with the data width of (32*Y)/X bits.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a data storage to store a window table storing a table value with an index value mapped to the table value, the index value having same number of bits as a window width, the table value being a sum of a basic table value and a non-zero table correction value, the basic table value being obtained by multiplying a point G on an elliptic curve. An arithmetic processor generates the index value by reading from a scalar value at a bit position assigned to each bit of the window with the window being shifted, reads the table value from the window table according to the index value, and performs a doubling operation and an addition operation using the read table value. A corrector performs a correction on arithmetic results with a specific correction value responsive to the table correction value.

Abstract: In a state where liquids are contained in a plurality of liquid container portions which are formed in a first layer and a second layer of a cartridge and which have predetermined volumes determined depending on liquids to be contained, and where the reaction vessel is connected to any one of communicating ports, when pressure is applied to act upon one of the liquid container portions which is communicated with the communicating port connected to the reaction vessel, the atmosphere is supplied to the one liquid container portion through a atmosphere flowing passage communicating with the outside, and the liquid contained in the one liquid container portion is supplied to the reaction vessel. The cartridge is rotated to connect another communicating port to the reaction vessel such that plural liquids are eventually supplied to the reaction vessel.
