Low-drop-out (LDO) voltage regulator modules are being increasingly integrated in the modern processors for efficient power management. This paper shows that an integrated All-Digital LDO (ADLDO) can also be used as a countermeasure against power measurement based side channel attacks. The current transformation introduced by integrated digital LDOs, coupled with the noise due to quantization and...
We propose a system to characterize the 3-D diffusion properties of the probing bead trapped by a photonic-force microscope. We follow a model-based approach, where the model of the dynamics of the bead is given by the Langevin equation. Our procedure combines software and analog hardware to measure the corresponding stiffness matrix. We are able to estimate all its elements in real time, including...
Hardware-acceleration techniques continue to be used to speed-up the execution of scientific codes. To do so, software developers identify portions of these codes that are amenable for offloading and map them to hardware accelerators. However, offloading such tasks to specialized hardware accelerators is non-trivial. Furthermore, these accelerators can add significant cost to a computing system. Consequently,...
Decimal data processing applications have grown exponentially in recent years thereby increasing the need to have hardware support for decimal arithmetic. In this paper, an improved architecture for efficient Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) addition/subtraction is presented that performs binary addition/subtraction without any extra hardware. The architecture works for both signed and unsigned numbers...
This paper presents a number of commonly used, open-source libraries for numerically intensive computations. Basic guidelines for the construction of a cluster based on off-the-shelf personal computers will also be given. Examples of the solution algorithms and performance gains achievable in solving some typical power system problems, both in a single machine as well as in a distributed environment,...
