Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Microsoft Excel offers number of data analysis tools commonly known as what if analysis.These tools are extensively used to solve many business problems.However in Engineering and Computing Science these easy to use features are seldom used to solve appropriate problems.Instead most of the problems are solved using specific tools such as MATLAB or specific Computer programs.In situation where Microsoft Excel is used, only rudimentary features such as formula, mathematical functions are utilized.The Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA) algorithm is one of the most well-known and secure public-key encryption methods used for secured data transmission.To determine the private key for RSA algorithm one has to use complex mathematical calculations.Many students of Introductory Computer Security courses without appropriate Mathematical background find it difficult to use RSA algorithm to determine appropriate solution for private decryption key.In this paper author attempts to show how RSA algorithm to determine private key can be modelled for Microsoft Excel Spread sheet, and how Excel Solver can easily and effectively be used subsequently to determine private keys for RSA algorithm.The author uses several examples to show viability of usage of EXCEL solver to quickly find private RSA keys.The author finds that the EXCEL Solver can be easily used in the class room to demonstrate how RSA algorithm can be used.The author also discusses the limitations and practical issues related to using EXCEL solver.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
