The forthcoming ISO/IEC 24727 series of standards defines application programming interfaces for smart cards and is expected to provide a major contribution to the global interope...
Current microprocessor instruction set architectures are word oriented, with some subword support. Many important applications, however, can realize substantial performance benefi...
Programmable logic arrays (PLAs) present an alternative to logic-gate based design. We propose the transistor level structure of a PLA for single-rail asynchronous applications. T...
Multi-lane vector processors achieve excellent computational throughput for programs with high data-level parallelism (DLP). However, application phases without significant DLP ar...
The performance of security applications can be greatly improved by accelerating the cryptographic algorithms in hardware. In this paper, an implementation of the Secure Shell (SS...
