(author), De la Cruz, Adrian Flores (author), Gomez-Olive, Adria (author), Garcia-Mondejar, Albert (author), Aparici, Monica Roca i. (author)The 2-D frequency-based omega-K method is known to be a suitable algorithm for fully focused SAR (FF-SAR) radar altimeter processors, as its computational efficiency is much higher than equivalent time-based alternatives without much performance degradation. In this article, we provide a closed-form description of a 2-D frequency-domain omega...journal article 2024

Köylü, T.C. (author)Machine learning has gained a lot of recognition recently and is now being used in many important applications. However, this recognition was limited in the hardware security area. Especially, very few approaches depend on this powerful tool to detect attacks during operation. This thesis reduces this gap in the field of fault injection attack...doctoral thesis 2023

Li, H. (author), Mentens, Nele (author), Picek, S. (author)SHA-3 is considered to be one of the most secure standardized hash functions. It relies on the Keccak-f[1 600] permutation, which operates on an internal state of 1 600 bits, mostly represented as a 5 x 5 x 64-bit matrix. While existing implementations process the state sequentially in chunks of typically 32 or 64 bits, the Keccak-f[1 600]...conference paper 2023

Di Mascio, S. (author)The usage of terrestrial processors in space applications is not straightforward, as processors in space face unique challenges due to the effects of the space environment, like ionizing radiation causing Single Event Effects (SEEs). In the nineties, the European Space Agency chose the Scalable Processor ARChitecture (SPARC) Instruction Set...doctoral thesis 2022

Herrejón-Pintor, Gilberto A. (author), Melgoza-Vázquez, Enrique (author), de Jesus Chavez, Jose (author)The controls of most power electronic inverters connected to an electrical power system (EPS) rely on the precise determination of the voltage magnitude, frequency, and phase angle at the point of common coupling. One of the most widely used approaches for measuring these quantities is the phase-locked loop (PLL); however, the precision of this...journal article 2022

Li, H. (author), Mentens, Nele (author), Picek, S. (author)This paper uses RISC-V vector extensions to speed up lattice-based operations in architectures based on HW/SW co-design. We analyze the structure of the number-theoretic transform (NTT), inverse NTT (INTT), and coefficient-wise multiplication (CWM) in CRYSTALS-Kyber, a lattice-based key encapsulation mechanism. We propose 12 vector extensions...conference paper 2022

Stroobants, S. (author), Dupeyroux, J.J.G. (author), de Croon, G.C.H.E. (author)Compelling evidence has been given for the high energy efficiency and update rates of neuromorphic processors, with performance beyond what standard Von Neumann architectures can achieve. Such promising features could be advantageous in critical embedded systems, especially in robotics. To date, the constraints inherent in robots (e.g., size...journal article 2022

Koene, Davy (author)With the increase in the amount of data being gathered, the need for data processing is also rising. Furthermore, in addition to the proprietary ISAs that have been prevalent, the free and open RISC-V ISA has seen major interest. The modularity of the RISC-V ISA allows it to be extended with many instruction set extensions. One such extension...master thesis 2021

(author)A novel type of hardware accelerators called automata processors (APs) have been proposed to accelerate finite-state automata. The bone structure of an AP is a hierarchical routing matrix that connects many memory arrays. With this structure, an AP can process an input symbol every clock cycle, and hence achieve much higher performance...journal article 2021

Lao, L. (author), van Someren, J. (author), Ashraf, I. (author), Almudever, Carmen G. (author)Quantum algorithms need to be compiled to respect the constraints imposed by quantum processors, which is known as the mapping problem. The mapping procedure will result in an increase of the number of gates and of the circuit latency, decreasing the algorithm's success rate. It is crucial to minimize mapping overhead, especially for noisy...journal article 2021
