This paper describes a multiplier architecture optimized for 32 bit RISC processor with 3-stage pipeline. The multiplier of ARM7, the target processor, is variably carried out on the execution stage of pipeline within 7 cycles. The included multiplier employs a modified Booth's algerian to produce 64 bit multiplication and addition product and it has 6 separate instructions. We analyzed several multiplication algorithm such as radix4-32${\times}$8, radix4-32${\times}$16 and radix8-32${\times}$32 to decide which multiplication architecture is most fit for a typical architecture of ARM7. VLSI area, cycle delay time and execution cycle number is the index of an efficient design and the final multiplier was designed on these indexes. To verify the operation of embedded multiplier, it was simulated with various audio algorithms.

The lightweight block cipher PIPO announced at ICISC'20 has been effectively implemented by applying the bit slice technique. In this paper, we propose a parallel optimal implementation of PIPO for ARM processors. The proposed implementation enables parallel encryption of 8-plaintexts and 16-plaintexts. The implementation targets the A10x fusion processor. On the target processor, the existing reference PIPO code has performance of 34.6 cpb and 44.7 cpb in 64/128 and 64/256 standards. Among the proposed methods, the general implementation has a performance of 12.0 cpb and 15.6 cpb in the 8-plaintexts 64/128 and 64/256 standards, and 6.3 cpb and 8.1 cpb in the 16-plaintexts 64/128 and 64/256 standards. Compared to the existing reference code implementation, the 8-plaintexts parallel implementation for each standard has about 65.3%, 66.4%, and the 16-plaintexts parallel implementation, about 81.8%, and 82.1% better performance. The register minimum alignment implementation shows performance of 8.2 cpb and 10.2 cpb in the 8-plaintexts 64/128 and 64/256 specifications, and 3.9 cpb and 4.8 cpb in the 16-plaintexts 64/128 and 64/256 specifications. Compared to the existing reference code implementation, the 8-plaintexts parallel implementation has improved performance by about 76.3% and 77.2%, and the 16-plaintext parallel implementation is about 88.7% and 89.3% higher for each standard.

This paper describes a hardware design of the Secure Hash Algorithm-3 (SHA-3) hash functions that are the latest version of the SHA family of standards released by NIST, and an implementation of ARM Cortex-M0 interface for security SoC applications. To achieve an optimized design, the tradeoff between hardware complexity and performance was analyzed for five hardware architectures, and the datapath of round block was determined to be 1600-bit on the basis of the analysis results. In addition, the padder with a 64-bit interface to round block was implemented in hardware. A SoC prototype that integrates the SHA-3 hash processor, Cortex-M0 and AHB interface was implemented in Cyclone-V FPGA device, and the hardware/software co-verification was carried out. The SHA-3 hash processor uses 1,672 slices of Virtex-5 FPGA and has an estimated maximum clock frequency of 289 Mhz, achieving a throughput of 5.04 Gbps.

In this paper, we propose optimization methods for implementing SPARKLE, one of the NIST LWC finalists, on a 64-bit ARMv8 processor. The proposed methods consist of two approaches: an implementation using ARM A64 instructions and another using NEON ASIMD instructions. The A64-based implementation is optimized by performing register scheduling to efficiently utilize the available registers on the ARMv8 architecture. By utilizing the optimized A64-based implementation, we can achieve speeds that are 1.69 to 1.81 times faster than the C reference implementation on a Raspberry Pi 4B. The ASIMD-based implementation, on the other hand, optimizes data by parallelizing the ARX-boxes to perform more than three of them concurrently through a single vector instruction. While the general speed of the optimized ASIMD-based implementation is lower than that of the A64-based implementation, it only slows down by 1.2 times compared to the 2.1 times slowdown observed in the A64-based implementation as the block size increases from SPARKLE256 to SPARKLE512. This is an advantage of the ASIMD-based implementation. Therefore, the ASIMD-based implementation is more efficient for SPARKLE variant block cipher or permutation designs with larger block sizes than the original SPARKLE, making it a useful resource.
