An Evaluation of the State-Of-The-Art Software and Hardware Implementations of BIKE

Authors: Andrea Galimberti, Gabriele Montanaro, William Fornaciari, and Davide Zoni

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 107, 14th Workshop on Parallel Programming and Run-Time Management Techniques for Many-Core Architectures and 12th Workshop on Design Tools and Architectures for Multicore Embedded Computing Platforms (PARMA-DITAM 2023)


Abstract
NIST is conducting a process for the standardization of post-quantum cryptosystems, i.e., cryptosystems that are resistant to attacks by both traditional and quantum computers and that can thus substitute the traditional public-key cryptography solutions which are expected to be broken by quantum computers in the next decades. This manuscript provides an overview and a comparison of the existing state-of-the-art implementations of the BIKE QC-MDPC code-based post-quantum KEM, a candidate in NIST’s PQC standardization process. We consider both software, hardware, and mixed hardware-software implementations and evaluate their performance and, for hardware ones, their resource utilization.

Dynamic Power Consumption of the Full Posit Processing Unit: Analysis and Experiments

Authors: Michele Piccoli, Davide Zoni, William Fornaciari, Giuseppe Massari, Marco Cococcioni, Federico Rossi, Sergio Saponara, and Emanuele Ruffaldi

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 107, 14th Workshop on Parallel Programming and Run-Time Management Techniques for Many-Core Architectures and 12th Workshop on Design Tools and Architectures for Multicore Embedded Computing Platforms (PARMA-DITAM 2023)


Abstract
Since its introduction in 2017, the Posit™ format for representing real numbers has attracted a lot of interest, as an alternative to IEEE 754 floating point representation. Several hardware implementations of arithmetic operations between posit numbers have also been proposed in recent years. In this work, we analyze the dynamic power consumption of the Full Posit Processing Unit (FPPU) recently developed at the University of Pisa. Experimental results show that we can model the dynamic power consumption of the FPPU with an acceptable approximation error from 2.84% (32-bit FPPU) to 7.32% (8-bit FPPU). Furthermore, from the synthesis of the power monitoring unit alongside the FPPU we demonstrate that the additional power module has an area cost that goes from ∼5% (32-bit FPPU) to ∼30% (8-bit FPPU) of the total unit area occupation.

Event-Based Control Enters the Real-Time World: Perspectives and Pitfalls

Authors: Silvano Seva, William Fornaciari, and Alberto Leva

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 87, Second Workshop on Next Generation Real-Time Embedded Systems (NG-RES 2021)


Abstract
In the last years, event-based control techniques have been gaining a steadily increasing importance owing to the advantages they bring, such as reduced network traffic, low actuator wear, reduced energy consumption of the involved devices. Applying the event-based paradigm in the context of real-time control opens up new opportunities, but introduces new challenges as well. In this paper we provide an overview of both opportunities and challenges, outlining the major problems to be tackled and as a consequence future research directions.

A Low Energy FPGA Platform for Real-Time Event-Based Control

Authors: Silvano Seva, Claudia Esther Lukaschewsky Mauriziano, William Fornaciari, and Alberto Leva

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 77, Workshop on Next Generation Real-Time Embedded Systems (NG-RES 2020)


Abstract
We present a wireless sensor node suitable for event-based real-time control networks. The node achieves low-power operation thanks to tight clock synchronisation with the network master (at present we refer to a star network but extensions are envisaged). Also, the node does not employ any programmable device but rather an FPGA, thus being inherently immune to attacks based on code tampering. Experimental results on a simple laboratory apparatus are presented.
