Description

Understanding Checksums and Cyclic Redundancy Checks This book gives practical, comprehensive answers to common questions about checksums and CRCs. Descriptions are based mainly on intuitive rather than mathematical explanations for both algorithmic operation and limitations, improving accessibility to non-specialists. Coverage includes single-sum checksums, dual-sum checksums (Fletcher checksum, DualX, DualXP), the new Koopman checksum, Cyclic Redundancy Checks (CRCs), and system-level usage considerations. For decades much of the practical use of checksums and CRCs was based, at least in part, on folklore. This book provides a solid, comprehensive foundation for addressing core issues such as the comparative fault detection effectiveness of each technique, insight into speed differences, intuitive explanations for how speed-up techniques work, which CRC polynomial you should use for any particular situation, and source code examples for each approach. This is the most comprehensive treatment of checksums and CRCs to date. The emphasis is on intuitive explanations and empirical validation of insights for practical application of these techniques to addressing real-world problems. Chapters: Introduction Decimal checksum examples Checksum operation and terminology Checksum fault model Single-sum checksums Dual-sum checksums (Fletcher, Adler, DualX) Koopman checksum Checksum plus parity for HD=4 (KoopmanP, DualXP) Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) CRC effectiveness Other checksum considerations System-level considerations Resources Conclusions Appendix: Good CRC Polynomials Glossary Includes example source code in C for each type of checksum. The hardcover interior is printed in premium full color, with dozens of color illustrations.
