sha3_hash_parallel

###Setting Up Our parallelized sha3 code requires an installation of OpenCL. This can be done via the following steps:

1. sudo apt-get install ocl-icd-opencl-dev

2. install AMD APP SDK at http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks/opencl-zone/amd-accelerated-parallel-processing-app-sdk/

3. sudo apt-get install python-pyopencl

###Files The serial code is taken from the authors of Keccak at http://keccak.noekeon.org/

The authors' serial code is in: Keccak.py

Our parallelized code is in: sha3.cl, sha3.py

Demo serial code are: demo_Keccak.py, demo_KeccakF.py

Our runtime comparison script is in: keccak_performancetest.py

Dictionary used in our project are taken from "John the Ripper" and "Cain & Abel"

###Running sha3 Our parallelized keccak takes in a list of strings and hash the list in parallel. Below is a simple example

import sha3
import pyopencl as cl

#Initialize OpenCL
platforms = cl.get_platforms()
devices = platforms[0].get_devices()
context = cl.Context(devices[:2])
queue = cl.CommandQueue(context, context.devices[0],
                        properties=cl.command_queue_properties.PROFILING_ENABLE)
program = cl.Program(context, open('sha3.cl').read()).build(options='')

#Parameters for SHA 512
r = 576
c = 1024
n = 512

#Input strings
inputlist = ["", "abcd", "a" * 1000]

result = sha3.Keccak(inputlist, n, r,c, program, context, queue)
print result

The output will be a list of hashes that correspond to the input strings.
