Researchers have investigated many upper bound techniques applicable to error probabilities on the maximum likelihood (ML) decoding performance of turbo-like codes and low density parity check (LDPC) codes in recent years for a long codeword block size. This is because it is trivial for a short codeword block size. Previous research efforts, such as the simple bound technique [20] recently proposed, developed upper bounds for LDPC codes and turbo-like codes using ensemble codes or the uniformly interleaved assumption. This assumption bounds the performance averaged over all ensemble codes or all interleavers. Another previous research effort [21] obtained the upper bound of turbo-like code with a particular interleaver using a truncated union bound which requires information of the minimum Hamming distance and the number of codewords with the minimum Hamming distance. However, it gives the reliable bound only in the region of the error floor where the minimum Hamming distance is dominant, i.e., in the region of high signal-to-noise ratios. Therefore, currently an upper bound on ML decoding performance for turbo-like code with a particular interleaver and LDPC code with a particular parity check matrix cannot be calculated because of heavy complexity so that only average bounds for ensemble codes can be obtained using a uniform interleaver assumption. In this paper, we propose a new bound technique on ML decoding performance for turbo-like code with a particular interleaver and LDPC code with a particular parity check matrix using ML estimated weight distributions and we also show that the practical iterative decoding performance is approximately suboptimal in ML sense because the simulation performance of iterative decoding is worse than the proposed upper bound and no wonder, even worse than ML decoding performance. In order to show this point, we compare the simulation results with the proposed upper bound and previous bounds. The proposed bound technique is based on the simple bound with an approximate weight distribution including several exact smallest distance terms, not with the ensemble distribution or the uniform interleaver assumption. This technique also shows a tighter upper bound than any other previous bound techniques for turbo-like code with a particular interleaver and LDPC code with a particular parity check matrix.

본 논문은 디지털 순서회로 설계시 상태할당 알고리즘 개발에 관한 연구로, 동적 소비전력을 감소시키기 위하여 상태변수의 변화를 최소로 하는 코드를 할당하여 상태코드가 변화하는 스위칭횟수를 줄이도록 하였다. 상태를 할당하는데는 Markov의 확률함수를 이용하여 hamming거리가 최소가 되도록 상태 천이도에서 각 상태를 연결하는 edge에 weight를 정의한 다음, 가중치를 이용하여 각 상태들간의 연결성을 고려하여 인접한 상태들간에는 가능한 적은 비트 천이를 가지도륵 모든 상태를 반복적으로 찾아 계산하였다. 비트 천이의 정도를 나타내기 위하여 cost 함수로 계산한 결과 순서회로의 종류에 따라 Lakshmikant의 알고리즘보다 최고 57.42%를 감소시킬 수 있었다.

Efficiency is one of the most important factors in cryptographic systems. Cheon et al. proposed a new exponent form for speeding up the exponentiation operation in discrete logarithm based cryptosystems. It is called split exponent with the form $e_1+{\alpha}e_2$ for a fixed element ${\alpha}$ and two elements $e_1$, $e_2$ with low Hamming weight representations. They chose $e_1$, $e_2$ in two unbalanced subsets $S_1$, $S_2$ of $Z_p$, respectively. We achieve efficiency improvement making $S_1$, $S_2$ balanced subsets of $Z_p$. As a result, speedup for exponentiations on binary fields is 9.1% and speedup for scalar multiplications on Koblitz Curves is 12.1%.

In this paper, a state assignment algorithm was proposed to reduce power consumption in control-flow oriented finite state machines. The Markov chain model is used to reduce the switching activities, which closely relate with dynamic power dissipation in VLSI circuits. Based on the Markov probabilistic description model of finite state machines, the hamming distance between the codes of neighbor states was minimized. To express the switching activities, the cost function, which also accounts for the structure of a machine, is used. The proposed state assignment algorithm is tested with Logic Synthesis Benchmarks, and reduced the cost up to 57.42% compared to the Lakshmikant's algorithm.

As a special form of the signed-digit representation, the NAF(non-adjacent form) minimizes the hamming weight by reducing the average density of the non-zero bits from the binary representation of the positive integer k. Due to this advantage, the NAF is used in various fields; in particular, it is actively used in cryptology. The existing NAF-conversion algorithm, however, is problematic because the conversion speed decreases when the LSB(least significant bit) frequently becomes "1" during the binary positive integer conversion process. This paper suggests a method for the improvement of the NAF-conversion speed for which the problems that occur in the existing NAF-conversion process are solved. To verify the performance improvement of the algorithm, the CPU cycle for the various inputs were measured on the ATmega128, a low-performance 8-bit microprocessor. The results of this study show that, compared with the existing algorithm, the suggested algorithm not only improved the processing speed of the major patterns by 20% or more on average, but it also reduced the NAF-conversion time by 13% or more.

The Salsa20/12 stream cipher selected for the final eSTREAM portfolio has a better performance than software implementation of AES using an 8-bit microprocessor with restricted memory space, In the theoretical approach, the evaluation of exploitable timing vulnerability was 'none' and the complexity of side-channel analysis was 'low', but there is no literature of the practical result of power analysis attack. Thus we propose the correlation power analysis attack method and prove the feasibility of our proposed method by practical experiments, We used an 8-bit RISC AVR microprocessor (ATmegal128L chip) to implement Salsa20/12 stream cipher without any countermeasures, and performed the experiments of power analysis based on Hamming weight model.
