Difference between Rijndael 128 / 256 blocksize implementations? (and impact of block size in general)
Can anyone shed some light onto the advantages/disadvantages of using Rijndael with 256-bit block size, as opposed to the 128-bit (AES) implementation? (please note: I'm not referring to key-size ...

How were the AES key and block length subsets of Rijndael selected?
My intuition tells me it's a trade off between speed and security, but how did the standardisation process select these three seemingly arbitrary key lengths (namely, AES-128, AES-192, AES-256).

How does the key schedule of Rijndael looks for keysizes other than 128 bit?
It said in Wikipedia that:
[....] Rijndael can be specified with block and key sizes in any multiple of 32 bits, with a minimum of 128 bits. The blocksize has a maximum of 256 bits, but the ...
