RIPEMD-128 Overview

RIPEMD-128 is a secure hash algorithm, designed by by Dobbertin, Bosselaers, and Preneel. The algorithm takes a message of arbitrary length and produces a 128-bit message digest and can be considered a good alternative to MD5 algorithm.

RIPEMD-128  was described in H.Dobbertin, A.Bosselaers, and B.Preneel, "RIPEMD-160: a strengthened version of RIPEMD", D.Gollmann, editor, Fast Software Encryption, Third International Workshop (LNCS 1039), 71-82, Springer-Verlag, 1996. This article contains a description of both RIPEMD-160 and RIPEMD-128.
