Welcome to polycephaly.org!


This...

... is the private website of Ruben Niederhagen.

I obtained my PhD in 2012 at Technical University Eindhoven in the Netherlands at the Eindhoven Institute for the Protection of Systems and Information.

This site is intended to give access to my research results and to stuff which I consider of interest and which I would like to share with you.

You are welcome to contact me via mail at on my research topics...


Polycephaly...

... is a condition of having more than one head. The term is derived from the stems poly- meaning 'many' and kephal- meaning 'head'. (Source: Wikipedia)

Parallel Architectures...

... are my topic of research and academical interest. Thus you won't find much information about multi-headed-beings on this site but tools and information about parallel computing and parallel cryptanalysis.

Any similarities...

... to the website cryptojedi.org are completely intentional and not coincidental at all.
