The proposed FFT architecture employs a mixed-radix algorithm to significantly reduce the number of complex multipliers. It utilises a configurable complex constant multiplier structure instead of a fixed constant multiplier to efficiently conduct , , and twiddle factor multiplication. A hardware-sharing mechanism has also been formulated to reduce the memory space requirements of the proposed 16/32/64/128-point FFT computation scheme. The proposed design is implemented in Xilinx Virtex-5 and Altera's field-programmable gate array devices. For the computation of 128-point FFT, the proposed mixed-radix FFT architecture significantly reduces the hardware cost in comparison with existing FFT architecture. The proposed FFT architecture is also implemented by adopting the 90 nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technology with a supply voltage of 1 V. Post-synthesis results reveal that the design is efficient in terms of gate count and power consumption, compared to earlier reported designs. The proposed variable-length FFT architecture gate count is 22.3K and consumes 3.832 mW, while the word-length is 12-bits and can be efficiently useful for the IEEE 802.15.4-g standard.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50383,"journal":{"name":"IET Computers and Digital Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1049/iet-cdt.2018.5260","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72161843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study combines ternary static DCVSL (SDCVSL) with dynamic logic (DL) to realise ternary dynamic DCVSL (DDCVSL) by means of a single power source. At first, it is shown that why the same static-to-dynamic conversion method in binary logic fails to operate correctly in ternary logic. Then, two solutions are given.

Hard to test nets in any logic circuit are the most vulnerable to insertion of Hardware Trojans. Testability analysis is the process of identification of these hard to test nets in a logic circuit. Testability analysis is achieved through the testability metrics namely controllability and observability. Testability metrics can be used as a yardstick in devising efficient Hardware Trojan detection methods. The crux of this study is a novel method for identification of susceptible nets that are prone to Hardware Trojan insertions in a logic circuit. The study also presents a comprehensive analysis of the impact on testability parameters as a result of Hardware Trojans in the identified susceptible nets.

As heterogeneous, many-core parallel resources continue to permeate into the modern server and embedded domains, there has been growing interest in promulgating realistic extensions and assumptions in keeping with newer use cases. This study aims to provide a comprehensive review of the purviews and insights provided by the extensive body of work related to Amdahl's law to date, focusing on computation speedup. The authors show that a significant portion of these studies has looked into analysing the scalability of the model considering both workload and system heterogeneity in real-world applications. The focus has been to improve the definition and semantic power of the two key parameters in the original model: the parallel fraction (<i>f</i>) and the computation capability improvement index (<i>n</i>). More recently, researchers have shown normal-form and multi-fraction extensions that can account for wider ranges of heterogeneity, validated on many-core systems running realistic workloads. Speedup models from Amdahl's law onwards have seen a wide range of uses, such as the optimisation of system execution, and these uses are even more important with the advent of the heterogeneous many-core era.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50383,"journal":{"name":"IET Computers and Digital Techniques","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2020-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/iet-cdt.2018.5220","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71927028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, cryptosystems built over these elliptic curves are expected to play a vital role in the near future for secure communications. A high-speed elliptic curve cryptographic processor (ECCP) for the Curve448 is proposed in this study. The area of the ECCP is optimised by performing different modular operations required for the elliptic curve Diffie–Hellman protocol through a unified architecture. The critical path delay of the proposed ECCP is optimised by adopting the redundant-signed-digit technique for arithmetic operations. The segmentation approach is introduced to reduce the required number of clock cycles for the ECCP. The proposed ECCP is developed using look-up-tables (LUTs) only, and hence it can be ported to any field-programmable gate array family or standard ASIC libraries.
