  1. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
  2. * We used "Screaming Fast Galois Field Arithmetic Using Intel
  3. SIMD Instructions" paper by James S. Plank, Kevin M. Greenan
  4. and Ethan L. Miller to improve Reed-Solomon coding performance.
  5. Also we are grateful to Artem Drobanov and Bulat Ziganshin
  6. for samples and ideas allowed to make Reed-Solomon coding
  7. more efficient.
  8. * RAR4 text compression algorithm is based on Dmitry Shkarin PPMII
  9. and Dmitry Subbotin carryless rangecoder public domain source code.
  10. You can find it in ftp.elf.stuba.sk/pub/pc/pack.
  11. * RAR encryption includes parts of public domain code
  12. from Szymon Stefanek AES and Steve Reid SHA-1 implementations.
  13. * With exception of SFX modules, RAR uses CRC32 function based
  14. on Intel Slicing-by-8 algorithm. Original Intel Slicing-by-8 code
  15. is available here:
  16. https://sourceforge.net/projects/slicing-by-8/

  42. * RAR archives may optionally include BLAKE2sp hash ( https://blake2.net ),
  43. designed by Jean-Philippe Aumasson, Samuel Neves, Zooko Wilcox-O'Hearn
  44. and Christian Winnerlein.
  45. * Useful hints provided by Alexander Khoroshev and Bulat Ziganshin allowed
  46. to significantly improve RAR compression and speed.
