DNA-based Encryption Algorithms Simulation

DNK kriptografija kao grana DNK računanja je zanimljivo i obećavajuće područje istraživanja. U radu je opisan osnovni model DNK računala, kao i biološka svojstva DNK s naglaskom na njihovu primjenu u izračunavanju i rješavanju problema. Iznesene su određene prednosti, kao i nedostatci uporabe DNK kao medija za izračunavanje i pohranu podataka. Posebna pozornost posvećena je opisu izabranih kriptografskih algoritama zasnovanih na DNK. Na kraju je dana i programska implementacija koja simulira rad nekoliko opisanih algoritamaDNA cryptography is, as a branch of DNA calculation, an interesting and promising area of research. This paper presents the basic model of DNA computers, as well as biological properties of DNA with emphasis on their application in calculation and problem solving. Certain advantages are highlighted, as well as drawbacks to using DNA as a calculation and data storage medium. Special attention is given to the description of chosen cryptographical algorithms based on DNA. A software implementation which simulates the work of several described algorithms is given at the end
