	Key signature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Key signatures are generally written immediately after the clef at the beginning of a line of musical notation, although they can appear in other parts of a score, usually after a double bar.
		A key signature is not the same as a key; key signatures are merely notational devices.
		Note that an absence of a key signature does not always mean that the music is in the key of C major or A minor: each accidental may be notated explicitly, or the piece may be atonal.

		In musical notation, the key signature is the series of sharps or (alternatively) flats are to be used, unless the notes are indicated otherwise, in a section of music.
		Although key signatures can technically consist of any collection of sharps or flats, musical tradition dictates that they be arranged in a fixed order according to the key of the piece.
		As each major key has an equivalent relative minor key that may be represented with the same key signature, the number of standard key signatures is less than the actual number of keys.

	Key signature
		A key signature is the set of sharps or flats that is written at the beginning of a piece of music to indicate the key of the piece.
		The key signature may be "null" (no sharps or flats), or it can be from one to seven flats, or from one to seven sharps; it cannot be a mixture of sharps and flats.
		When the key of a piece of music changes (that is, a real change to that new key for a period of time, not just a few notes or part of a modulation), a new key signature is written.

	FIPS 186 - (DSS), Digital Signature Standard
		Signature verification makes use of a public key which corresponds to, but is not the same as, the private key.
		A digital signature is an electronic analogue of a written signature in that the digital signature can be used in proving to the recipient or a third party that the message was, in fact, signed by the originator.
		The DSA is used by a signatory to generate a digital signature on data and by a verifier to verify the authenticity of the signature.

	Lesson 20- Key Transposition
		We know this because there is one sharp in the key signature, and there are no D-sharps to indicate a leading tone to E-minor.
		You might think that since the key signature has no sharps or flats, it is therefore in C-major or A-minor.
		Obviously, if the key of the melody is irrelevant, we would not likely be asked to transpose it to a particular key: we would likely be asked to transpose it by a certain interval.

		The XML Signature is a method of associating a key with referenced data (octets); it does not normatively specify how keys are associated with persons or institutions, nor the meaning of the data being referenced and signed.
		Keyed hash authentication codes, based on secret keys, are typically much more efficient in terms of the computational effort required but have the characteristic that all verifiers need to have possession of the same key as the signer.
		Signature Formally speaking, a value generated from the application of a private key to a message via a cryptographic algorithm such that it has the properties of integrity, message authentication and/or signer authentication.

	Circle of Fifths ( 5ths ) - understanding key signatures
		Now, one of the conventions of key signatures is that a proper key signature does not mix sharps and flats.
		Each successive key not only adds a new sharp or flat, but keeps the sharps or flats that were present in the preceding key.
		One use for the circle of 5ths in a compositional sense is as a key changing device.

	Public Key Digital Signatures
		The public key is distributed to anyone that needs to encrypt a message destined for the holder of the private key.
		It is used to produce the paired keys and to encrypt or decrypt data using the appropriate key.
		The same message digest functions and public key cryptography algorithm used to process the digital signature must be used by both the sender and receiver.

	Dolmetsch Online - Music Theory Online - Key Signatures and Accidentals
		One explanation is the association between 'key signatures' and the use of 'major' and 'minor' keys.
		The flat keys are 'constructed' by treating the first tetrachord of the present scale as the second tetrachord of the key flatter by one accidental to it.
		The signature was then and remains only a notational convenience that reduces the number of sharp and flat signs in the body of the score by placing them in the key signature at the beginning of the line.

	Lesson 16: Key Identification
		First, we determine key by what accidentals are used, not necessarily by the first or final note of the excerpt.
		What if we consider that the F# is the key signature, and the G# is some other accidental.
		A key signature with one sharp would be either G-major (and the G# doesn't make any immediate sense) or E-minor (again the G# doesn't make any sense).

	XML-Signature Syntax and Processing
		For readability, brevity, and historic reasons this document uses the term "signature" to generally refer to digital authentication values of all types.Obviously, the term is also strictly used to refer to authentication values that are based on public keys and that provide signer authentication.
		Detached signatures are over external network resources or local data objects that reside within the same XML document as sibling elements; in this case, the signature is neither enveloping (signature is parent) nor enveloped (signature is child).
		PKCS1, section 9.2.1], the value input to the signature function MUST contain a pre-pended algorithm object identifier for the hash function, but the availability of an ASN.1 parser and recognition of OIDs is not required of a signature verifier.
