This paper proposes a new bit-serial multiplier/divider architecture to reduce the hardware complexity significantly and to maintain the same number of cycles compared with existing architectures. Since the proposed bit-serial multiplier/divider architecture does not extend the number of bits in registers and an adde $r_tractor to calculate a partial product or a partial remainder, the hardware overhead can be greatly reduced. In addition, the proposed architecture can perform an additio $n_traction and a shift operation in parallel and the number of cycles for $\textit{N}$-bit multiplication and division for the proposed circuits is $\textit{N}$ and $\textit{N}$ + 2, repectively. Thus, the number of cycles for multiplication and division is the same compared with existing architectures. The SliM Image Processor employs the proposed multiplier/divider architecture and proves the performance of the proposed architecture.cture.

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.

The study is about a finite field multiplying unit, which performs a calculation t-times as fast as the Mastrovito's multiplier architecture, suggesting and using the 2-times faster multiplier architecture. Former studies on finite field multiplication architecture includes the serial multiplication architecture, the array multiplication architecture, and the hybrid finite field multiplication architecture. Mastrovito's serial multiplication architecture has been regarded as the basic architecture for the finite field multiplication, and in order to exploit parallelism, as much resources were expensed to get as much speed in the finite field array multipliers. The array multiplication architecture has weakness in terms of area/performance ratio. In 1999, Parr has proposed the hybrid multipcliation architecture adopting benefits from both architectures. In the hybrid multiplication architecture, the main hardware frame is based on the Mastrovito's serial multiplication architecture with smaller 2-dimensional array multipliers as processing elements, so that its calculation speed is fairly fast costing intermediate resources. However, as the order of the finite field, complex integers instead of prime integers should be used, which means it cannot be used in the high-security applications. In this paper, we propose a different approach to devise a finite field multiplication architecture using Mastrovito's concepts.

Efficient finite field operation in the elliptic curve (EC) public key cryptography algorithm, which attracts much of latest issues in the applications in information security, is very important. Traditional serial finite multipliers root from Mastrovito's serial multiplication architecture. In this paper, we adopt the polynomial basis and propose a new finite field multiplier, inducing numerical expressions which can be applied to exhibit 3 times as much performance as the Mastrovito's. We described the proposed multiplier with HDL to verify and evaluate as a proper hardware IP. HDL-implemented serial GF (Galois field) multiplier showed 3 times as fast speed as the traditional serial multiplier's adding only partial-sum block in the hardware. So far, there have been grossly 3 types of studies on GF($2^m$) multiplier architecture, such as serial multiplication, array multiplication, and hybrid multiplication. In this paper, we propose a novel approach on developing serial multiplier architecture based on Mastrovito's, by modifying the numerical formula of the polynomial-basis serial multiplication. The proposed multiplier architecture was described and implemented in HDL so that the novel architecture was simulated and verified in the level of hardware as well as software.

In this paper, a new architecture for fast-serial $GF(2^m)$ multiplier with low hardware complexity is proposed. The fast-serial multiplier operates standard basis of $GF(2^m)$ and is faster than bit serial ones but with lower area complexity than bit parallel ones. The most significant feature of the fast-serial architecture is that a trade-off between hardware complexity and delay time can be achieved. But The traditional fast-serial architecture needs extra (t-1)m registers for achieving the t times speed. In this paper a new fast-serial multiplier without increasing the number of registers is presented.

A hybrid charging method with serial and parallel architecture has been developed to resolve the unbalanced charge problem among battery cells for Electric Vehicles. In this method, the major charging is performed with serial part and the balancing is carried out with the parallel part, where the serial part is big and heavy but the parallel part is smaller and lighter than serial part. A sensor array to detect the individual battery cell voltage, duty rate control incorporated IGBTs, and battery management system are employed as the core parts of the proposed system.

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.

So far, there have been grossly 3 types of studies on GF(2m) multiplier architecture, such as serial multiplication, array multiplication, and hybrid multiplication. Serial multiplication method was first suggested by Mastrovito (1), to be known as the basic CF(2m) multiplication architecture, and this method was adopted in the array multiplier (2), consuming m times as much resource in parallel to extract m times of speed. In 1999, Paar studied further to get the benefit of both architecture, presenting the hybrid multiplication architecture (3). However, the hybrid architecture has defect that only complex ordo. of finite field should be used. In this paper, we propose a novel approach on developing serial multiplier architecture based on Mastrovito's, by modifying the numerical formula of the polynomial-basis serial multiplication. The proposed multiplier architecture was described and implemented in HDL so that the novel architecture was simulated and verified in the level of hardware as well as software. The implemented GF(2m) multiplier shows t times as fast as the traditional one, if we modularized the numerical expression by t number of parts.

Numerical simulations of 1D Burgers equation and 2D sloshing problem were carried out to study numerical discrepancy between serial and parallel computations. The numerical domain was decomposed into 2 and 4 subdomains for parallel computations with message passing interface. The numerical solution of Burgers equation disclosed that fully explicit boundary conditions used on subdomains of parallel computation was responsible for the numerical discrepancy of transient solution between serial and parallel computations. Two dimensional sloshing problems in a rectangular domain were solved using OpenFOAM. After a lapse of initial transient time sloshing patterns of water were significantly different in serial and parallel computations although the same numerical conditions were given. Based on the histograms of pressure measured at two points near the wall the statistical characteristics of numerical solution was not affected by the number of subdomains as much as the transient solution was dependent on the number of subdomains.

The distributed arithmetic approach has been commonly recognized as an efficient method to implement the inner-product type of computation with fixed coefficients such as DCT/IDCT. This paper presents a novel architecture and the implementation of 2-D DCT/IDCT VLSI chip based on distributed arithmetic. The main feature of the proposed architecture is a fully 2-bit serial pipeline and parallel structure with memory-based signal processing circuitry, which is efficient to the implementation of the bit-serial operation of distributed arithmetic. All modules of the proposed architecture are designed with NP-dynamic circuitry to reduce the power consumption and to increase the performance. This chip is applicable in HDTV systems working at video sampling rate up to 75 MHz.
