Hash functions, such as SHA (secure hash algorithm) and MD (message digest) families that are built upon Merkle-Damgard construction, suffer many attacks due to the iterative nature of block-by-block message processing. Chum and Zhang [4] proposed a new hash function construction that takes advantage of the randomize-then-combine technique, which was used in the incremental hash functions, to the iterative hash function. In this paper, we implement such hash construction in three ways distinguished by their corresponding padding methods. We conduct the experiment in parallel multi-threaded programming settings. The results show that the speed of proposed hash function is no worse than SHA1.
