Abstract :
The possibility and the construction of a number of fast algorithms for the two-dimensional masking of small mask sizes is clearly demonstrated. These are based on nesting and represent extension of the ideas of Stasinski (1990). Moreover, the authors explain how to make the optimal choice of the algorithm depending on the computational machine available.
