Arrival of my Sweet Little Niece

While Visiting Durgapur in Last November

Let us have a look at the photograph of the cute new born baby of my only sister. My little niece arrived to the universe only on Monday, 28-NOV-2011. I like to have the best of wishes from all the knowledgeable readers of my open diary for this sweetest new member of my family.

Invitation for Active Participation

It is my pleasure to share with you all that I am a Member of Programme Committee, 3rd International Conference on Computer Science and Information Technology (CSIT) to be held on January 15, 2012, in the North-Eastern Indian city of Guwahati (http://www.interscience.ac.in/Guwahati/CSIT/csit.html).

This is for your information that I am a Member of Technical Committee in International Conference on Computer Application, 2012 (ICCA 2012) to be held in Pondicherry, INDIA during 27-31 January, 2012 (http://www.icca.org.in/techcom.html).

This is for your further information that I am a Member of Advisory Committee in International Conference on Advanced Computing & Communication Technologies, 2012 (ACCT12) to be held in Rohtak on JAN 7-8, 2012 (http://rgsociety.org/acct12/comm/advcomm.html).

On behalf of each of these events, I strongly invite for active participation to researchers reading my Blog.

Invitation for Research Papers

I strongly invite researchers to share their innovative work through research papers to be communicated to IJIST, IJACSA, IJISMRD, IJMCAR, IJERA and IJMER, based on my association as Member of respective Editorial Boards of these popular Journals. Also, based on my involvement in different honorary positions with associations like ASDF, IACSIT, CRSI and IAENG, I like to invite for papers to Conferences organized by these reputed associations.

Regional Director - WB, ASDF

It is my pleasure to share with all of you that recently I have been assigned a new honorary position by the Association of Scientists, Developers and Faculties (ASDF) [asdf.org.in] to act as the Regional Director, West Bengal. In this assignment, it would be my responsibility to work under the direction of its honorable Executive Director, West Bengal. Primarily, now I am in the process of clarifying the set of responsibilities entrusted on me.

Recent Engagements with Some Associations

In last one month or so, I have connected myself in different capacities with some technical associations and one NGO. Through a global platform I’ve shared a couple of my articles, one of which is completely out of track from my academic expertise. I don’t find this Open Diary as an ideal platform to share all these attachments in detail. However, I do hope that all such attachments will inspire me to do better in my academic and personal life in days ahead of me.

Research Plan in Supervisory Level

TO DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT NEW PUBLIC-KEY CIPHERS: Because of its wider acceptability, public-key cryptography has been a striking area for research and innovation for last several years. Based on a study on all public-key ciphers developed so far, it is targetted to design, develop and implement a set of new such ciphers.

TO DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT NEW SECURITY TOOLKITS USING STEGANOGRAPHY COMBINING WITH CRYPTOGRAPHY: Cryptography and steganography being two independent strong areas in the process of incorporating security to transmitted data, a merged process combining these two aspects will have a definite impact. Although a lot of work already has taken place in this regard, still there is scope to have a further research in this combined aspect.

TO DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT NEW APPROACHES ON COST/EFFORT ESTIMATION IN SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT: This is a striking area for research in the field of software engineering. It can include observing and analyzing all the existing approaches to develop some efficient approaches. This can be accomplished in consultation with a professional system analyst engaged in software industry.

TO CONCEPTUALIZE AND IMPLEMENT NEW MODELS FOR SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT: This can be accomplished in collaboration with people professionally engaged in software development. Such a work will include detailed analysis of all existing models that are directly or indirectly used in software industries, and considering all merits and pitfalls, developing a complete solution.

A Few Words More

Already, though only in informal level, a few willing and energetic persons are in touch with me with their efforts to pursue their work in any of my chosen fields. Furthermore, potential candidates of any age with requisite qualification to pursue higher studies with reasonably good innovative qualities in any of these fields and sound writing skill in correct English may directly mail a self-written Research Proposal to me. On assessing the same, further action from my side can be taken. Ultimately, at the most, one or two will be accepted as my upcoming scholar(s). Kindly avoid calling me over phone for this issue. My Mail-ID is furnished in this site. Use that ID only for your communication with me.

News of Registration of My Second Scholar

Under the joint guidance of Prof. (Dr.) Goutam Sanyal (Internal Guide) of National Institute of Technology, Durgapur and myself (External Guide), Sabyasachi Samanta has very recently been registered as a Part-time Research Scholar for Ph. D. in NIT-Durgapur. After my first scholar, Pranam Paul was awarded in 2010, Sabyasachi Samanta is only my second scholar. On behalf of both of his guides, I wish him a very successful completion of his research in the area related to Digital Watermarking and Steganography leading to the degree of Ph. D.

ICCA 2012

The International Conference on Computer Applications 2012 (ICCA 2012) will be held in Pondicherry during 27-31 January, 2012. Currently, I’m associated with it as a Member of the Technical Committee. In your convenient time, you may go through its Website, http://www.icca.org.in and may communicate your innovative works and ideas in the field of Computer Applications in the form of research papers.

Pre-Registration Seminar of 2nd Scholar

Sabyasachi Samanta, my 2nd scholar for Ph. D. is going to present a Seminar on 04-05-2011 in presence of a Panel of Examiners of NIT-Durgapur. A successful seminar will result in his Registration as a Part-time Research Scholar in NIT-Durgapur. His Seminar is entitled, A NOVEL APPROACH TO ENHANCE SECURITY OF DATA USING INVISIBLE DIGITAL WATERMARKING TAGGED WITH ENCRYPTION.

On my New Book

My new book [ISBN: 978-3-8443-0082-6] in e-market published in last January by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing of Germany is simply being used as a global platform to share my doctoral research with enthusiastic scholars in the field of theoretical cryptology.

Six encryption techniques have been presented here, all of which had been developed and implemented during my research that ended effectively in early 2004. All these techniques cause implementation in bit-level using respective private keys. Using some selected parameters, performances of these techniques have been assessed and consequently, these performances have been compared with RSA technique, resulting in an observation of reasonable level of compatibility with RSA, although the solution offered by RSA is based on public key. Based on those six independent encryption techniques, an integrated technique termed as Integrated Encryption System (IES) has been proposed and presented with set of all schematic and operational characteristics.

Unlike conventional books on cryptology, this one, more suitably that can be termed as a monograph, consists of no exercise, no sample questions, no excessive discussion on different aspects of cryptology, but simply is targeted to help those, who work or like to work for bringing innovations in the field of cryptology. LAP Lambert has set a price of 79 EURO for this book. Availability of a few copies of this book in the library of a research or educational organization may help its young researchers to get the best out of it.

Probable Registration of My Second Scholar

Having considered a satisfactory level of progress in the research work of Sabyasachi Samanta, my second Ph.D. scholar, an initiative has been taken by me of late to register him in NIT-Durgapur under my external supervision.

The name of his Internal Supervisor will be disclosed in time.

My New Book in e-Market

One German publishing house recently has published my book entitled, AN APPROACH TO DESIGN NEW EFFICIENT ENCRYPTION TECHNIQUES (ISBN: 978-3-8443-0082-6) that has been written on my cryptology-related personal research.
