Lightweight cryptography is a vital and fast growing field in today’s world where billions of constrained devices interact with each other. In this paper, two novel compact architectures of the Enocoro-128v2 stream cipher are presented. The Enocoro-128v2 is part of the ISO/IEC 29192-3 standard. The first architecture has an 8-bit datapath while the second one has a 4-bit datapath. The proposed architectures were implemented on the BASYS3 board (Artix 7 XC7A35T) using the VERILOG hardware description language. The hardware implementation of the proposed 8-bit architecture runs at a 189 MHz clock and reaches a throughput equal to 302 Mbps, while at the same time, it utilizes only 254 Look-up Tables (LUTs) and 330 Flip-flops (FFs). Each round of computations requires 5 clock cycles. The 4-bit implementation has an operating frequency of 204 MHz and reaches a throughput equal to 181 Mbps, with each round requiring 9 clock cycles. The 4-bit implementation utilizes 249 LUTs and 343 FFs. To our knowledge, this is the first time that such implementations of the Enocoro-128v2 are presented. Both implementations utilize a very low number of resources (only 78 FPGA slices are required for the 8-bit architecture and only 83 for the 4-bit one) and the results demonstrate that they are sustainable for area constrained embedded devices.

By introducing the basic principle of ordinary CRC algorithm, the paper develops an algorithm which can be used to analyze data communication structure and construct design process. At the same time, it can be quickly implemented in the data communication process. The algorithm uses Verilog HDL hardware description language to complete all the design on ISE development platform. And it uses Xilinxs development board Virtex-II Pro to achieve the final realization. Compared with traditional methods, the algorithm is simple and intuitive, which reduces computational the delays and saves space. It also benefits hardware implementation.

We present in the following work a hardware implementation of the two principal optical flow methods. The work is based on the methods developed by Lucas & Kanade, and Horn & Schunck. The implementation is made by using a field programmable gate array and Hardware Description Language. To achieve a successful implementation, the algorithms were optimized. The results show the optical flow as a vector field over one frame, which enable an easy detection of the movement. The results are compared to a software implementation to insure the success of the method. The implementation is a fast implementation capable of quickly overcoming a traditional implementation in software.

Redundant Binary (RB) to Two’s Complement (TC) converter offers nonredundant representation. However, the sign bit of TC representation has to be handled using nonstandard hardware blocks. The concept of Inverted encoding of negative weighted bits (IEN) eliminates the need of sign extension and offers design only using predefined hardware blocks. NonRedundant Binary (NRB) representation refers to both conventional and IEN representations. The NRB representation is also useful considering problem related to shifting in Carry Save (CS) representation of a RB number. In this paper, we have proposed two new conversion circuits for RB to NRB representation. The proposed circuits of the RB to NRB converter are coded in Verilog Hardware Description language (HDL) and synthesized using the Encounter(R) RTL Compiler RC13.10 v13.10-s006_1 of Cadence tool considering ASIC platform. Considering 64 bits’ operand, the delay power product performances of proposed one-bit and two-bit computations offer improvement of almost 29.9% and 47%, respectively as compared to Carry-Look-Ahead (CLA). The proposed one-bit converter is also applied in the final stage of the Modified Redundant Binary Adder (MRBA). The 32-bit MRBA offers a delay improvement of 7.87% replacing conventional converter with proposed one-bit converter in same FPGA 4vfx12sf363-12 device.
