The Multi-Level Decomposition Diagrams (MLDDs) of this paper are a canonical representation of Boolean functions expliciting disjoint-support decompositions. MLDDs allow the reduc...
—We investigate restructuring techniques based on decomposition/factorization, with the objective to move critical signals toward the output while minimizing area. A specific ap...

This paper focuses on numerical function generators (NFGs) based on k-th order polynomial approximations. We show that increasing the polynomial order k reduces significantly the...
Abstract. We discuss a collection of mechanized formal proofs of symmetric key block encryption algorithms (AES, MARS, Twofish, RC6, Serpent, IDEA, and TEA), performed in an imple...

In modern SoCs, embedded memories occupy the largest part of the chip area and include an even larger amount of active devices. As memories are designed very tightly to the limits...
