The harmonic analysis on finite non-Abelian groups is an extension of them, which has also found applications for particular tasks in the same fields. It takes advantages of the peculiar features of the domain groups and their dual objects. Representing unitary irreducible representations, that are kernels of Fourier transforms on non-Abelian groups, in a compact manner is a key task in this area. These representations are usually specified in terms of rectangular matrices with matrix entries. Therefore, the problem of their efficient representations can be viewed as handling large rectangular matrices with matrix-valued entries. Quantum Multiple-valued Decision Diagrams (QMDDs) and Heterogeneous Decision Diagrams (HDDs) have been used for representation of matrices with numerical values, under some restrictions to the order of matrices to be represented. In this paper, we present a generalization of this concept for the representation of rectangular matrices with matrix-valued entries. We also demonstrate an implementation of an XML-based software package aimed at handling such data structures.","PeriodicalId":447743,"journal":{"name":"2010 40th IEEE International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124008809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The voltage-mode and current-mode registers are proposed for hiding dependencies between power consumption and input data. For this purpose, the voltage-mode register activates any one of two flip-flops in a complementary style, and the current-mode register maintains the number of current signals independently of the input value. This paper also applies the two registers to RSA processors in Multiple-Valued Current-Mode Logic and evaluates the power characteristics by HSIM simulations using 90nm process technology. The result shows that the proposed designs can achieve constant power consumption with lower overhead in comparison with the conventional designs.","PeriodicalId":447743,"journal":{"name":"2010 40th IEEE International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130064789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Implementation of the appropriate protection techniques often implies non-standard methods that are not supported by the conventional design tools. In the recent decade the designers of secure devices have been working hard on customising the workflow. The presented research aims to collect the up-to-date experiences in this area and create a generic approach to the secure design flow that can be used as guidance by engineers. In the presented paper the emphasis is put on multi-valued logic synthesis and asynchronous system design. The proposed flow employs the tool based on higher radix and mixed radix Reed-Muller expansions, power-balanced logic component libraries and TiDE design environment. The challenge of the research here is interfacing between different EDA tools and technologies.
