Abstract:
Error-correcting codes (ECCs) and cryptography schemes are indispensable to the reliability and security of numerous classic and emerging systems. Advanced ECCs play essential roles in the performance of 5G/6G wireless communications, distributed storage, in/near-memory computing, and quantum computing. With the development of new technologies, such as quantum computers and cloud computing, there are imminent needs for post-quantum cryptography and homomorphic encryption for privacy-preserving cloud computing. Protecting the circuit chips implementing advanced functions from counterfeiting is also necessary to preserve the semiconductor supremacy achieved by the CHIPS Act. This talk presents my recent contributions on related topics, including advanced ECC designs for next-generation memories, coding schemes for low-latency failure recovery in hyper-scale distributed storage, generalized logic-locking for resisting circuit chip piracy, and hardware accelerator designs for homomorphic encryption and post-quantum cryptography.
