The recent audio CODEC(Coding/Decoding) algorithms are complex of several coding techniques, and can be divided into DSP tasks, controller tasks and mixed tasks. The traditional DSP processor has been designed for fast processing of DSP tasks only, but not for controller and mixed tasks. This paper presents a new architecture that achieves high throughput on both controller and mixed tasks of such algorithms while maintaining high performance for DSP tasks. The proposed processor, YSP-3, operates four algorithms while maintaining high performance for DSP tasks. The proposed processor, YSP-3, operates functional units (Multiplier, two ALUs, Load/Store Unit) in parallel via 4-issue super-scalar instruction structure. The performance evaluation of YSP-3 has been done through the implementation of the several DSP algorithms and the part of the AC-3 decoding algorithms.

The N basis functions are typically chosen so that Surface reflectance functions(SRFs) and spectral power distributions (SPDs) can be accurately reconstructed from their N-dimensional vector codes. Typical rendering applications assume that the resulting mapping is an isomorphism where vector operations of addition, scalar multiplication, component-wise multiplication on the N-vectors can be used to model physical operations such as superposition of lights, light-surface interactions and inter-reflection. The vector operations do not mirror the physical. However, if the choice of basis functions is restricted to characteristic functions then the resulting map between SPDs/SRFs and N-vectors is anisomorphism that preserves the physical operations needed in rendering. This paper will show how to select optimal characteristic function bases of any dimension N (number of basis functions) and also evaluate how accurately a large set of Munsell color chips can approximated as basis functions of dimension N.

A design of an elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) processor that supports both pseudo-random curves and Koblitz curves over $GF(2^m)$ defined by the NIST standard is described in this paper. A finite field arithmetic circuit based on a word-based Montgomery multiplier was designed to support five key lengths using a datapath of fixed size, as well as to achieve a lightweight hardware implementation. In addition, Lopez-Dahab's coordinate system was adopted to remove the finite field division operation. The ECC processor was implemented in the FPGA verification platform and the hardware operation was verified by Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key exchange protocol operation. The ECC processor that was synthesized with a 180-nm CMOS cell library occupied 10,674 gate equivalents (GEs) and a dual-port RAM of 9 kbits, and the maximum clock frequency was estimated at 154 MHz. The scalar multiplication operation over the 223-bit pseudo-random elliptic curve takes 1,112,221 clock cycles and has a throughput of 32.3 kbps.

A scalable ECC architecture with high scalability and flexibility between performance and hardware complexity is proposed. For architectural scalability, a modular arithmetic unit based on a one-dimensional array of processing element (PE) that performs finite field operations on 32-bit words in parallel was implemented, and the number of PEs used can be determined in the range of 1 to 8 for circuit synthesis. A scalable algorithms for word-based Montgomery multiplication and Montgomery inversion were adopted. As a result of implementing scalable ECC processor (sECCP) using 180-nm CMOS technology, it was implemented with 100 kGEs and 8.8 kbits of RAM when N_PE=1, and with 203 kGEs and 12.8 kbits of RAM when N_PE=8. The performance of sECCP with N_PE=1 and N_PE=8 was analyzed to be 110 PSMs/sec and 610 PSMs/sec, respectively, on P256R elliptic curve when operating at 100 MHz clock.

The ECC(Elliptic Curve Cryptogrphics), one of the representative Public Key encryption algorithms, is used in Digital Signature, Encryption, Decryption and Key exchange etc. The key operation of an Elliptic curve cryptosystem is a scalar multiplication, hence the design of a scalar multiplier is the core of this paper. Although an Integer operation is computed in infinite field, the scalar multiplication is computed in finite field through adding points on Elliptic curve. In this paper, we implemented scalar multiplier in Elliptic curve based on the finite field GF($2^{163}$). And we verified it on the Embedded digital system using Xilinx FPGA connected to an EISC MCU. If my design is made as a chip, the performance of scalar multiplier applied to Samsung $0.35 {\mu}m$ Phantom Cell Library is expected to process at the rate of 8kbps and satisfy to make up an encryption processor for the Embedded digital doorphone.

The user's secret key can be retrieved by the leakage informations of power consumption occurred during the execution of scalar multiplication for elliptic curve cryptographic algorithm which can be embedded on a security device. Recently, a carry random recoding method is proposed to prevent simple power and differential power analysis attack by recoding the secret key. In this paper, we show that this recoding method is still vulnerable to the differential power analysis attack due to the limitation of the size of carry bits, which is a different from the original claim.

This paper proposed receding methods for a radix-${\gamma}$ representation of the secret scalar which are resistant to SPA. Unlike existing receding method, these receding methods are left-to-right so they can be interleaved with a left-to-right scalar multiplication, removing the need to store both the scalar and its receding. Hence, these left-to-right methods are suitable for implementing on memory limited devices such as smart cards and sensor nodes

The randomization of scalar multiplication in ECC is one of the fundamental concepts in defense methods against side-channel attacks. This paper proposes a countermeasure against simple and differential power analysis attacks through randomizing the transformed m-ary method based on a random m-ary receding algorithm. The proposed method requires an additional computational load compared to the standard m-ary method, yet the power consumption is independent of the secret key. Accordingly, since computational tracks using random window width can resist against SPA and DPA, the proposed countermeasure can improve the security for smart cards.

A new high-performance DSP architecture is proposed, which behaves as a coprocessor of a 32bit microcontroller. Because the proposed DSP architecture is a dual MAC(Multiply and Accumulate) DSP architecture, it can process efficiently a number of SOP(sum of product) operations used in many DSP applications. In order to efficiently perform other operations such as pure additions without any restriction, a MAC is composed of a multiplier and a ALU placed in parallel. In addition, it is a 3-way superscalar architecture, which can issue 3 instructions at a time. The benchmark results with 3 thor dual MAC DSPs show that the proposed DSP has the best performance. Futhermore, it is proven that the proposed DSP is more efficient in memory usage, although the performance is comparable in some algorithms such as Viterbi decoding and FFT butterfly.
