The Chernoff-Hoeffding bounds are fundamental probabilistic tools. An elementary approach is presented to obtain a Chernoff-type upper-tail bound for the number of prime factors o...
Motivated by the goal of factoring large integers using the Number Field Sieve, several special-purpose hardware designs have been recently proposed for solving large sparse system...
