Fondazione Ugo Bordoni

Last updated

The Fondazione Ugo Bordoni (Ugo Bordoni Foundation) was founded in 1952 and named after engineering professor Ugo Bordoni [1] of the University of Rome. The Foundation supports scientific research and applications of telecommunications and information technology.

For most of its existence, the Foundation's Board of Directors was composed of representatives of the Ministry of Postal Service and members of the telecommunication sector. Following the establishment of a new charter in 2009, the Board of Directors is nominated by the Ministry for Economic Development on the basis of designations by the President of the Council of Ministers. Industry representatives may still serve as members of the Founders Committee, which consults on strategic issues. The new charter also established a Scientific Committee composed of academics and other members of the research community.

The Foundation is a participant in the TREC 2009 Chemistry Track. [2]

In cryptography, MMB is a block cipher designed by Joan Daemen as an improved replacement for the IDEA cipher. Modular multiplication is the central element in the design. Weaknesses in the key schedule were identified by Eli Biham, and this, together with the cipher's not having been designed to resist linear cryptanalysis, meant that other designs were pursued instead, such as 3-Way.

Piero Giorgio Bordoni was an Italian physicist, who first measured the anelastic relaxation effect, named after him, due to the stress induced motion of dislocations in metals. That experiment, together with a similar one by T.S. Kê, opened the way to the study of the dynamics of dislocations in solids. Those were also the first experiments of anelasticity in solids, a branch of physics studying defects, excitations and phase transitions in condensed matter, first systematised by Clarence Zener.
