Optimisation of the SHA-2 family of hash functions on FPGAs
TL;DR: A new VLSI architecture for the SHA-256 and SHA-512 hash functions is presented, which combines two popular hardware optimisation techniques, namely pipelining and unrolling, to achieve the fastest data throughputs in the literature to date.
Book ChapterDOI
Differential power analysis of HMAC based on SHA-2, and countermeasures
TL;DR: This paper describes a DPA attack strategy for the HMAC algorithm, based on the SHA-2 hash function family, and presents a masked implementation of the algorithm, which is designed to counteract first-order DPA attacks.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
EEG compression using JPEG2000: How much loss is too much?
Garry Higgins,Stephen Faul,Robert P. McEvoy,Brian McGinley,Martin Glavin,William P. Marnane,Edward Jones +6 more
TL;DR: The reconstructed EEG signals are applied to REACT, a state-of-the-art seizure detection algorithm, in order to determine the effect of lossy compression on its seizure detection ability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolated WDDL: A Hiding Countermeasure for Differential Power Analysis on FPGAs
TL;DR: This work evaluates and compares the effectiveness of common hiding countermeasures against DPA in FPGA-based designs, using the Whirlpool hash function as a case study and develops a new design flow called Isolated WDDL (IWDDL).
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effects of Lossy Compression on Diagnostically Relevant Seizure Information in EEG Signals
Garry Higgins,Brian McGinley,Stephen Faul,Robert P. McEvoy,Martin Glavin,William P. Marnane,Edward Jones +6 more
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that compression by a factor of up to 120:1 can be achieved, with minimal loss in seizure detection performance as measured by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the seizure detection system.
