    • Data Flow Obfuscation: A New Paradigm for Obfuscating Circuits 

      Zamiri Azar K., Kamali H.M., Roshanisefat S., Homayoun H., Sotiriou C.P., Sasan A. (2021)
      In this article, unlike almost all state-of-The-Art obfuscation solutions that focus on functional/logic obfuscation, we introduce a new paradigm, called data flow obfuscation, which exploits the essence of asynchronicity. ...
    • Graph-based STA for asynchronous controllers 

      Simoglou S., Xiromeritis N., Sotiriou C., Sketopoulos N. (2020)
      We present a Graph-based Asynchronous Static Timing Analysis (ASTA) methodology for Asynchronous Control Circuits, which pessimistically computes Critical Cycle(s), instead of Critical Paths, without cycle cutting. Its ...
    • Low power monolithic 3D IC design of asynchronous AES core 

      Penmetsa N.L., Sotiriou C., Lim S.K. (2015)
      In this paper, we demonstrate, for the first time, that a monolithic 3D implementation of an asynchronous AES encryption core can achieve up to 50.3% footprint reduction, 25.7% improvement in power, 34.3% shorter wirelength ...
    • Simulation-Based Maximum Coverage Hazard Detection and Elimination Analysis, Supporting Combinational Logic Loops 

      Chatzivangelis N., Valiantzas D., Sotiriou C., Lilitsis I. (2022)
      We demonstrate an iterative simulation-based maximum coverage detection and elimination analysis of logic-hazards for combinational logic loops. Although the focus is on asynchronous circuits with such feedbacks, it is ...
    • Static Timing Analysis Induced Simulation Errors for Asynchronous Circuits 

      Simoglou S., Sotiriou C., Blias N. (2021)
      In this paper, we demonstrate that conventional Static Timing Anaysis (STA) based, functional, gate-level simulation of asynchronous circuits with cycles is only as accurate as the STA engine used. This is, firstly because ...
    • Timing errors in sta-based gate-level simulation 

      Simoglou S., Sotiriou C., Blias N. (2020)
      In this paper, we demonstrate that conventional STA-based, functional, gate-level simulation of asynchronous circuits with cycles is only as accurate as the STA engine used. This is, firstly because cycle cuts create local ...
