To ensure security and robustness of the next generation of Physically Unclonable
Functions (PUFs), we have developed a new methodology for PUF design. Our approach …

The fabrication of digital Integrated Circuits (ICs) is increasingly outsourced. Given this trend,
security is recognized as an important issue. The threat agent is an attacker at the IC foundry …

The creation of facial range models by 3D imaging systems has led to extensive work on 3D
face recognition [19]. However, little work has been done to study the usefulness of such …

System security has emerged as a premier design requirement. While there has been an
enormous body of impressive work on testing integrated circuits (ICs) desiderata such as …

Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) can extract chip-unique signatures from integrated
circuits (ICs) by exploiting the uncontrollable randomness due to manufacturing process …

The semiconductor industry is fully globalized and integrated circuits (ICs) are commonly
defined, designed and fabricated in different premises across the world. This reduces …

We introduce the first approach for pre-synthesis embedding of hardware Trojan horses
(HTHs) by the designer. The embedded HTH gives the designer a low layer control over the …

This paper presents a provably secure method for embedding multiple watermarks in
sequential designs. A number of different watermarks signed with the IP owner's secret key …

As process technology further scales, aging, noise and variations in integrated circuits (ICs)
and systems become a major challenge to both the semiconductor and electronic design …

For 45-nm technologies and below, the maximum operation frequency of integrated circuits
(ICs) has reached multiple gigahertz. At the same time, the size of modern ICs has increased …
