In this paper, a new architecture for digit-parallel/bit-serial GF($2^m$) multiplier with low complexity is proposed. The proposed multiplier operates in polynomial basis of GF($2^m$) and produces multiplication results at a rate of one per D clock cycles, where D is the selected digit size. The digit-parallel/bit-serial multiplier is faster than bit-serial ones but with lower area complexity than bit-parallel ones. The most significant feature of the digit-parallel/bit-serial architecture is that a trade-off between hardware complexity and delay time can be achieved. But the traditional digit-parallel/bit-serial multiplier needs extra hardware for high speed. In this paper a new low complexity efficient digit-parallel/bit-serial multiplier is presented.

In this paper, an efficient architecture for the ECC multiplier in GF(2") is proposed. We give a design example for the irreducible trinomials $x_{193}\;+\;x_{15}\;+\;1$. In hardware implementations, it is often desirable to use the irreducible trinomial equations. A digit-serial multiplier with a digit size of 32 is proposed, which has more advantages than the 193bit serial LFSR architecture. The proposed multiplier is verified with a VHDL description using an elliptic curve addition. The elliptic curve used in this implementation is defined by Weierstrass equations. The measured results show that the proposed multiplier it 0.3 times smaller than the bit-serial LFSR multiplier.lier.

This paper presents a digit-serial/parallel multiplier for finite fields GF(2m). The hardware requirements of the implemented multiplier are less than those of the existing multiplier of the same class, while processing time and area complexity. The implemented multiplier possesses the features of regularity and modularity. Thus, it is well suited to VLSI implementation. If the implemented digit-serial multiplier chooses the digit size D appropriately, it can meet the throughput requirement of a certain application with minimum hardware. The multipliers and squarers analyzed in this paper can be used efficiently for crypto processor in Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem.

Recently, a considerable number of studies have been conducted on pairing based cryptosystems. The efficiency of pairing based cryptosystems depends on finite fields, similar to existing public key cryptosystems. In general, pairing based ctyptosystems are defined over finite fields of chracteristic three, GF($3^m$), based on trinomials. A multiplication in GF($3^m$) is the most dominant operation. This paper proposes a new most significant digit(MSD)-first digit- serial multiplier. The proposed MSD-first digit-serial multiplier has the same area complexity compared to previous multipliers, since the modular reduction step is performed in parallel. And the critical path delay is reduced from 1MUL+(log ${\lceil}n{\rceil}$+1)ADD to 1MUL+(log ${\lceil}n+1{\rceil}$)ADD. Therefore, when the digit size is not $2^k$, the time delay is reduced by one addition.

Among finite filed arithmetic operations, division/inverse is known as a basic operation for public-key cryptosystems over $GF(2^{m})$ and it is computed by performing the repetitive $AB^{2}$ multiplication. This paper presents a digit-serial-in-serial-out systolic architecture for performing the $AB^2$ operation in GF$(2^{m})$. To obtain L×L digit-serial-in-serial-out architecture, new $AB^{2}$ algorithm is proposed and partitioning, index transformation and merging the cell of the architecture, which is derived from the algorithm, are proposed. Based on the area-time product, when the digit-size of digit-serial architecture, L, is selected to be less than about m, the proposed digit-serial architecture is efficient than bit-parallel architecture, and L is selected to be less than about $(1/5)log_{2}(m+1)$, the proposed is efficient than bit-serial. In addition, the area-time product complexity of pipelined digit-serial $AB^{2}$ systolic architecture is approximately $10.9\%$ lower than that of nonpipelined one, when it is assumed that m=160 and L=8. Additionally, since the proposed architecture can be utilized for the basic architecture of crypto-processor and it is well suited to VLSI implementation because of its simplicity, regularity and pipelinability.

In this paper, the method which improves the performance of a serial decimal multiplier, and the method which operates multiple-digit simultaneously are proposed. The proposed serial decimal multiplier reduces the delay by removing encoding module that generates 2X, 4X multiples, and by generating partial product using shift operation. Also, this multiplier reduces the number of operations using multiple-digit operation. In order to estimate the performance of the proposed multiplier, we synthesized the proposed multiplier with design compiler with SMIC 110nm CMOS library. Synthesis results show that the area of the proposed serial decimal multiplier is increased by 4%, but the delay is reduced by 5% compared to existing serial decimal multiplier. In addition, the trade off between area and latency with respect to the number of concurrent operations in the proposed multiple-digit multiplier is confirmed.

In this paper, an efficient digit-serial systolic array is proposed for multiplication in finite field GF($2^m$) using the polynomial basis representation. The proposed systolic array is based on the most significant digit first (MSD-first) multiplication algorithm and produces multiplication results at a rate of one every "m/D" clock cycles, where D is the selected digit size. Since the inner structure of the proposed multiplier is tree-type, critical path increases logarithmically proportional to D. Therefore, the computation delay of the proposed architecture is significantly less than previously proposed digit-serial systolic multipliers whose critical path increases proportional to D. Furthermore, since the new architecture has the features of a high regularity, modularity, and unidirectional data flow, it is well suited to VLSI implementation.
