This paper describes an efficient method to implement a hardware circuit of RSA public key cryptographic algorithm, which is important to public-key cryptographic system for an authentication, a key exchange and a digital signature. The RSA algorithm needs a modular exponential for its cryptographic operation, and the modular exponential operation is consists of repeated modular multiplication. In a numerous algorithm to compute a modular multiplication, the Montgomery algorithm is one of the most widely used algorithms for its conspicuous efficiency on hardware implementation. Over the past a few decades a considerable number of studies have been conducted on the efficient hardware design of modular multiplication for RSA cryptographic system. But many of those studies focused on the decrease of operating time for its higher performance. The most important thing to design a hardware circuit, which has a limit on a circuit area, is a trade off between a small circuit area and a feasible operating time. For these reasons, we modified the Montgomery algorithm for its efficient hardware structure for a system having a limit in its circuit area and implemented the refined algorithm in the IESA system developed for ETRI's smart card emulating system.

In this paper, we proposed a parallel hardware architecture for deblocking filter in K264/AVC. The deblocking filter has high efficiency in H.264/AVC, but it also has high computational complexity. For real time video processing, we chose a two 1-D parallel filter architecture, and tried to reduce memory access using dual-port SRAM. The proposed architecture has been described in Verilog-HDL and synthesized on Hynix 0.25um CMOS Cell Library using Synopsys Design Compiler. The hardware size was about 27.3K logic gates (without On-chip Memory) and the maximum operating frequency was 100Mhz. It consumes 258 clocks to process one macroblock, witch means it can process 47.8 HD1080P(1920pixel* 1080pixel) frames per second. It seems that it can be used for real time H.264/AVC encoding and decoding of various multimedia applications.

This paper presents a high-performance software-hardware dehazing system based on a dedicated hardware accelerator for the haze removal. In the proposed system, the dedicated hardware accelerator performs the dark-channel-prior-based dehazing process, and the software performs the other control processes. For this purpose, the dehazing process is realized as an OpenCL kernel by finding the inherent parallelism in the algorithm and is synthesized into a hardware by employing a high-level-synthesis technique. The proposed system executes the dehazing process much faster than the previous software-only dehazing system: the performance improvement is up to 96.3% in terms of the execution time.

Recently, as WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) becomes the necessary feature in IoT (Internet of Things) devices, the importance of data security also hugely increases. In this paper, we present the low-complexity 128-bit AES-$CCM^*$ hardware IP for IEEE 802.15.4 standard. For low-cost and low-power implementation which is essentially required in IoT devices, we propose two optimization methods. First, the folded AES(Advanced Encryption Standard) processing core with 8-bit datapath is presented where composite field arithmetic is adopted for reduced hardware complexity. In addition, to support $CCM^*$ mode defined in IEEE 802.15.4, we propose the mode-toggling architecture which requires less hardware resources and processing time. With the proposed methods, the gate count of the proposed AES-$CCM^*$ IP can be lowered up to 57% compared to the conventional architecture.

For image processing hardware, including a face detecting engine, efficient constitution of external and internal memories is a consequential point because huge memory is required to store various signal processing filters and incoming images. In this paper, we modified a face detect algerian of a general filter method for efficient hardware design. In the hardware, several memory design techniques are presented for efficient handling of image data : re-accessing avoidance with minimized internal memory usage, residing frequently accessed memory and sequence memory accessing. The hardware which can process 25 frame image data per one second with 40KB internal memory was verified by using ARM(S3C2440A) and Virtex4 FPGA and it is being fabricated as a ASIC chip using Samsung CMOS 0.18um technology.
