Framework for Rapid Performance Estimation of Embedded Soft Core Processors
The large number of embedded soft core processors available today make it tedious and time consuming to select the best processor for a given application. This task is even more challenging due to the numerous configuration options available for a ...
Preemption of the Partial Reconfiguration Process to Enable Real-Time Computing With FPGAs
To improve computing performance in real-time applications, modern embedded platforms comprise hardware accelerators that speed up the task’s most compute-intensive parts. A recent trend in the design of real-time embedded systems is to integrate field-...
Wotan: Evaluating FPGA Architecture Routability without Benchmarks
FPGA routing architectures consist of routing wires and programmable switches that together account for the majority of the fabric delay and area, making evaluation and optimization of an FPGA’s routing architecture very important. Routing architectures ...
Reconfigurable Hardware Architecture for Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol Over Binary Edwards Curve
In this article, we present a high-performance hardware architecture for Elliptic curve based (authenticated) key agreement protocol “Elliptic Curve Menezes, Qu and Vanstone” (ECMQV) over Binary Edwards Curve (BEC). We begin by analyzing inversion ...
Automated Synthesis of Streaming Transfer Level Hardware Designs
As modern field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA) enable high computing performance and efficiency, their programming with low-level hardware description languages is time-consuming and remains a major obstacle to their adoption. High-level synthesis ...
