, Inc. (WRI). "MathWorld" was ready to be unveiled in December 1999 with nearly 13,000 entries, most of them written by Weisstein, encompassing a variety of disciplines, including algebra, geometry, calculus, discrete mathematics, topology, number theory, statistics, and the foundations. "MathWorld" became involved in a legal dispute with the CRC Press in March 2000. The CRC Press claimed "MathWorld" violated the copyright on the CRC Concise Encyclopedia of Mathematics. During the dispute, a court order shut down

, Weisstein converted a Microsoft Word document of over 200 pages to hypertext format and uploaded it to his webspace at Caltech under the title "Eric's Treasure Trove of Sciences." After Weisstein transferred to the University of Virginia to continue his work in astronomy, he continued to refine his fledgling encyclopedia. In November 1998, Weisstein made a deal with the CRC Press to publish his encyclopedia in book format as the CRC Concise Encyclopedia of Mathematics. A year later, in 1999, Weisstein accepted the position of encyclopedist at Wolfram Research

But the reciprocal polynomial is not the same as the original polynomial, and the CRCs generated using it are not the same (even modulo bit reversal) as those generated by the original polynomial. The error-detection ability of a CRC depends on the degree of its key polynomial and on the specific key polynomial used.

The basic mathematics of a CRC accepts (considers as correctly transmitted) messages which, when interpreted as a polynomial, are a multiple of the CRC polynomial. If some leading 0 bits are prepended to such a message, they will not change its interpretation as a polynomial. This is equivalent to the fact that 0001 and 1 are the same number. But if the message being transmitted does care about leading 0 bits, the inability of the basic CRC algorithm to detect

Computation of cyclic redundancy checks


such a change is undesirable. If it is possible that a transmission error could add such bits, a simple solution is to start with the codice_21 shift register set to some non-zero value; for convenience, the all-ones value is typically used. This is mathematically equivalent to complementing (binary NOT) the first "n" bits of the message, where "n" is the number of bits in the CRC register. This does not affect CRC generation and checking in any way, as long as both

The number of distinct CRCs in use has confused developers, a situation which authors have sought to address. There are three polynomials reported for CRC-12, twenty-two conflicting definitions of CRC-16, and seven of CRC-32. The polynomials commonly applied are not the most efficient ones possible. Since 1993, Koopman, Castagnoli and others have surveyed the space of polynomials between

polynomial formula_5 is formula_66. The most interesting property of reciprocal polynomials, when used in CRCs, is that they have exactly the same error-detecting strength as the polynomials they are reciprocals of. The reciprocal of a polynomial generates the same "codewords", only bit reversed — that is, if all but the first formula_2 bits of a codeword under the original polynomial are taken, reversed and used as a new message, the CRC of that message under the reciprocal polynomial equals the reverse of the first formula_2 bits of the

because the "check" (data verification) value is a "redundancy" (it expands the message without adding information) and the algorithm is based on "cyclic" codes. CRCs are popular because they are simple to implement in binary hardware, easy to analyze mathematically, and particularly good at detecting common errors caused by noise in transmission channels. Because the check value has a fixed length, the function that generates it is occasionally used as a hash function. The CRC was invented by W. Wesley Peterson in 1961;

Mathematics of cyclic redundancy checks


The cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is based on division in the ring of polynomials over the finite field GF(2) (the integers modulo 2), that is, the set of polynomials where each coefficient is either zero or one, and arithmetic operations wrap around. Any string of bits can be interpreted as the coefficients of a message polynomial of this sort, and to find the CRC, we multiply the message polynomial by formula_1 and then find the remainder when dividing by the degree-formula_2 generator polynomial. The coefficients of

It is essential to use the correct form when implementing a CRC. If the coefficient of formula_52 happens to be zero, the forms can be distinguished at a glance by seeing which end has the bit set. To further confuse the matter, the paper by P. Koopman and T. Chakravarty converts CRC generator polynomials to hexadecimal numbers in yet another way: msbit-first

He showed that the optimal filter given these assumptions is a sum of four exponential terms. He also showed that this filter can be well
