  • Publication number: 20210226775
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and a system to execute the method to perform a first hashing operation to compute a first hash value, store the first hash value in a plurality of output registers, store a second message in a plurality of input registers, perform a first iteration of a second hashing operation, with an input to the second hashing operation including the second message and the first hash value, determine that a first portion of the second message, stored in a first register of the plurality of input registers, has been processed in course of the second hashing operation, and move a first portion of the first hash value stored in a first register of the plurality of output registers to the first register of the plurality of input registers.

  • Publication number: 20210173618
    Abstract: A first input share value, a second input share value, and a third input share value may be received. The first input share value may be converted to a summation or subtraction between an input value and a combination of the second input share value and the third input share value. A random number value may be generated and combined with the second input share value and the third input share value to generate a combined value. Furthermore, a first output share value may be generated based on a combination of the converted first input share value, the combined value, and additional random number values.

  • Patent number: 11018849
    Abstract: An integrated circuit may implement a masked substitution box that includes substitution function components, a decoder, and a logic component. Each of the substitution function components may receive a same input value and a different mask value and may generate a respective output mask value based on the same input value and respective different mask value The decoder may receive an input mask value and generate a decoded output value that is based on the received input mask value. The logic component may select one of the output mask values from one of the substitution function components based on the decoded output value.

  • Patent number: 10911221
    Abstract: A first hash value is calculated by using a first input value that is stored in a first set of registers. The first hash value is then stored in a second set of registers. A second input value is stored in the first set of registers after calculating the first hash value. The second hash value is calculated based on the first hash value and the second input value. During the calculating of the second hash value, the first hash value is shifted from the second set of registers to a portion of the first set of registers when the calculating of the second hash value has reached a state where the portion of the first set of registers is no longer used to store the second input value.

An estimator unit performs extended Kalman filtering in respect of the state transition model and the observation model using the input state data in order to generate output state data. The processor is arranged to evaluate a criterion associated with at least part of the output state data and to generate a control signal in response to evaluation of the criterion.
