A succinct review of all major HLS based hardware security approaches applied on reusable IP cores, along with their design flow and security analysis, is provided. The paper presents a detailed design flow of hardware integrated circuits (ICs) along with vulnerability points where potential attacks/threats are possible. Trustworthy and untrustworthy regimes in the design flow have also been highlighted in the discussion. Further, a discussion of detective and preventive control-based HLS hardware security approaches used for hardware IP cores has also been presented, including an analysis of prominent structural obfuscation, logic locking (logic encryption), and IP core protection (IPP) techniques. Each approach has been lucidly explained in terms of its threat model, algorithm, and security analysis. Finally, a security comparison of hardware IP obfuscation approaches in terms of strength of obfuscation security metric as well as a security comparison of IPP approaches in terms of probability of coincidence security metric, have also been introduced.","PeriodicalId":55038,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Circuits and Systems Magazine","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139663492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we cover the topic of segmented DEM DACs via the step-bystep derivation of a simple DAC architecture that is linear by virtue of its shuffling scheme.","PeriodicalId":55038,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Circuits and Systems Magazine","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139663702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They are widely used for solving complex CV tasks and NLP tasks such as image classification, image generation, and machine translation. Most state-of-the-art neural networks are over-parameterized and require a high computational cost. One straightforward solution is to replace the layers of the networks with their low-rank tensor approximations using different tensor decomposition methods. This article reviews six tensor decomposition methods and illustrates their ability to compress model parameters of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and Transformers. The accuracy of some compressed models can be higher than the original versions. Evaluations indicate that tensor decompositions can achieve significant reductions in model size, run-time and energy consumption, and are well suited for implementing neural networks on edge devices.","PeriodicalId":55038,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Circuits and Systems Magazine","volume":"23 1","pages":"8-28"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2023-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49545783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
