Our work addresses protection of hardware IP at the mask level with the goal of preventing unauthorized manufacturing. The proposed protocol based on chip locking and activation i...
Circuits using nano-meter technologies are becoming increasingly vulnerable to signal interference from multiple noise sources as well as radiation-induced soft errors. One way to...
As device geometries continue to shrink, single event upsets are becoming of concern to a wider spectrum of system designers. These “soft errors” can be a nuisance or catastro...
