Abstract
This paper deals with variations of the quadratic sieve integer
factoring algorithm. We describe what we believe is the first
implementation of the hypercube multiple polynomial quadratic
sieve with two large primes. We have used this program to
factor many integers with up to 116 digits. Our program
appears to be many times faster than the (non-hypercube)
multiple polynomial quadratic sieve with two large primes.
