Abstract: Cryptographic circuitry, in operation, generates N first pairs of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) keys r(i), R(i), with i varying from 1 to N, using K second pairs of ECC keys p(k), P(k), with k varying from 1 to K, wherein K is smaller than N. Each pair r(i), R(i) of the first pairs of keys is a linear combination of pairs of the second pairs of ECC keys according to: ? i ? [ 1 ; N ] ? { r ? ( l ) = ? j = 1 K A ? ( i , j ) * p ? ( j ) R ? ( i ) = ? j = 1 K A ? ( i , j ) * P ? ( j ) , wherein A(i,j) designates a general term of a matrix A of size N*K, and all the sub-matrices of size K*K are invertible. The cryptographic circuitry, in operation, executes cryptographic operations using one or more pairs of the first pairs of ECC keys.

Abstract: A method of managing an integrated circuit memory includes identifying a set of allocated regions and a set of empty regions spanning a memory space of an integrated circuit card, selecting the biggest empty region of the set of empty regions, determining that an allocated memory block of an allocated region immediately adjacent to the biggest empty region is larger than the biggest remaining empty region of the memory space, storing the allocated memory block in a temporary list of skipped memory blocks, removing the allocated memory block from the set of allocated memory regions, and swapping the allocated memory block with a remaining empty region to widen the biggest empty region.

Abstract: According to one aspect, it is proposed a method for simplifying a trained artificial neural network, the method including: obtaining a trained neural network having layers of neurons, each layer being configured to receive at least one input, each input being connected to at least one neuron of the layer by a connection applying a weight, named trained weight, to the input, and for each input of each layer of the trained neural network: ? forming clusters of trained weights of the connections of the layer connected to said input of the layer, ? computing a representative weight for each cluster, the representative weight being representative of the weights of the cluster, ? replacing in the trained neural network the trained weights of each cluster by the representative weight of this cluster to obtain a simplified neural network.

Abstract: Provided herein are novel isotretinoin formulations that provide an enhanced targeted dermal delivery system for the drug isotretinoin with improved thermodynamic activity using no to a small level of ethanol relative to existing isotretinoin gel products, and methods for treatment of ichthyosis and other skin conditions using the same.

Abstract: A method of managing an integrated circuit memory includes having an integrated circuit card with a memory space including memory space regions for storing user profile data. The memory space is partitioned into segments of memory space regions, where the segments of memory space regions includes allocated regions and empty regions. From the empty regions, the biggest empty region of the memory space is selected. The selected biggest empty region is widened by moving memory blocks positioned in a subset of allocated regions that are at boundaries of the selected biggest empty region into other available empty regions.
