Area and Energy Optimizations in ASIC Implementations of AES and PRESENT Block Ciphers
(University of Waterloo, 2020-05-25)When small, modern-day devices surface with neoteric features and promise benefits like streamlined business processes, cashierless stores, and autonomous driving, they are all too often accompanied by security risks due ... -
An Energy-Efficient System with Timing-Reliable Error-Detection Sequentials
(University of Waterloo, 2016-04-26)A new type of energy-efficient digital system that integrate EDS and DVS circuits has been developed. In these systems, EDS-monitored paths convert the PVT variations into timing variations. Nevertheless, the conversion ... -
Hardware Implementations of the WG-16 Stream Cipher with Composite Field Arithmetic
(University of Waterloo, 2014-09-22)The WG stream cipher family consists of stream ciphers based on the Welch-Gong (WG) transformations that are used as a nonlinear filter applied to the output of a linear feedback shift register (LFSR). The aim of this ... -
Simplifying the Creation of Multi-core Processors: An Interconnection Architecture and Tool Framework
(University of Waterloo, 2012-04-25)The contribution of this thesis is two-fold: an on-chip interconnection architecture designed specifically for multi-core processors and a tool framework that simplifies the process of designing a multi-core processor. ...
