Creator:: Sandalci, Can K.
Abstract:: We present the results of embedding a multigrid solver for Poisson's equation into the parallel 3D Monte Carlo device simulator, PMC-3D. First we compare the sequential multigrid implementation to the sequential Successive Overrelaxation (SOR) Monte Carlo code used previously in PMC-3D. Depending on the convergence threshold, we obtain significant speedups...

Creator:: Rodríguez-Henríquez, Francisco
Abstract:: During the last few years we have seen formidable advances in digital and mobile communication technologies such as cordless and cellular telephones, personal communication systems, Internet connection expansion, etc. The vast majority of digital information used in all these applications is stored and also processed within a computer system, and...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Creator:: Savaș, Erkay
Abstract:: As the information-processing and telecommunications revolutions now underway will continue to change our life styles in the rest of the 21st century, our personal and economic lives rely more and more on our ability to transact over the electronic medium in a secure way. The privacy, authenticity, and integrity of...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Creator:: Acar, Tolga
Abstract:: Computer and network security systems rely on the privacy and authenticity of information, which requires implementation of cryptographic functions. Software implementations of these functions are often desired because of their flexibility and cost effectiveness. In this study, we concentrate on developing high-speed and area-efficient modular multiplication and exponentiation algorithms for...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Creator:: Sessions, Julian Brently
Abstract:: Three block ciphers are considered to determine how well they can be implemented on existing superscalar architectures such as the Intel Pentium. An examination of the Pentium architecture suggests that substantial performance increases can be achieved if particular rules are followed. Software libraries are written in high-level C language and...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Creator:: Halbutoğulları, Alper
Abstract:: Computer and network security has recently become a popular subject due to the explosive growth of the Internet and the migration of commerce practices to the electronic medium. Thus the authenticity and privacy of the information transmitted and the data stored on networked computers is of utmost importance. The deployment...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Creator:: Aydos, Murat
Abstract:: In recent years, the elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) have received attention due to their increased security with smaller key size which brings the advantage of less storage area and less bandwidth. Elliptic curve cryptography provides a methodology for obtaining high-speed, efficient, and scalable implementations of network security protocols. In addition...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Creator:: Turan, Eda
Abstract:: The Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) is one of the most popular algorithms to digitally sign streams or blocks of data. In this thesis we concentrate on porting and optimizing the ECDSA on the ARM7 processor for a particular NIST curve over GF(2[superscript m]). The selected curve is a...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Creator:: Van Dyke, Colin William
Abstract:: With the current security climate throughout the Internet, a large emphasis is being placed on protecting software systems from attack by a malicious entity. Most successful attacks against software are the result of lazy or misinformed developers and are easily prevented given the correct preparation and instruction. This document provides...
