Càlcul distribuït en BOINC per el trencament de l'algorisme RC5
Aquest projecte té com a objectiu participar en el desafiament d'RSA Laboratories corresponent a trencar el criptosistema RC5-32-12-9 proposat. Per realitzar-ho s'ha triat realitzar un atac per força bruta, mitjançant el càlcul distribuït i, més concretament, utilitzant la Public Resource Computing. La plataforma escollida és la Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC), coneguda per la seva utilització en grans projectes com ara SETI@home. En aquest projecte es posa en funcionament la infraestructura i es desenvolupen les aplicacions necessàries per iniciar els càlculs que haurien de permetre el trencament del criptosistema.Este proyecto tiene como objetivo participar en el desafío de RSA Laboratories correspondiente a romper el criptosistema RC5-32-12-9 propuesto.

The strategy used to achieve this goal is to use a brute force attack using distributed computing techniques and, more precisely, Public Resource Computing. The chosen platform is the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC), a well known infrastructure since it has been used in large projects like SETI@home. In this project the BOINC infrastructure has been configured and it has been developed all necessary applications n order to start the computation that should allow breaking the proposed cryptosystem.Nota: Aquest document conté originàriament altre material i/o programari només consultable a la Biblioteca de Ciència i Tecnologia
Surgeon-led 7-INCut Antibiotic Stewardship Intervention Decreases Duration of Treatment and Carbapenem Use in a General Surgery Service

In this prospective interventional study, a multidisciplinary team led by surgeons implemented a program aimed at shortening the duration of antibiotic treatment <7 days. The impact of the intervention on antibiotic consumption adjusted to bed-days and discharges, and the isolation of multiresistant bacteria (MRB) was also studied. Furthermore, the surgeons were surveyed regarding their beliefs and feelings about the program. Out of 1409 patients, 40.7% received antibiotic therapy. Treatment continued for over 7 days in 21.5% of cases, and, as can be expected, source control was achieved in only 48.8% of these cases. The recommendations were followed in 90.2% of cases, the most frequent being to withdraw the treatment (55.6%). During the first 16 months of the intervention, a sharp decrease in the percentage of extended treatments, with R2 = 0.111 was observed. The program was very well accepted by surgeons, and achieved a decrease in both the consumption of carbapenems and in the number of MRB isolations. Multidisciplinary stewardship teams led by surgeons seem to be well received and able to better manage antibiotic prescription in surgery
