In this work we present the new GAP package FFCSA - Finite Field Constructions, Search, and Algorithms. It was designed to enable Design Space Exploration for hardware implementations of cryptographic algorithms defined over finite fields. FFCSA constructions and searches are used to produce the design space, and FFCSA algorithms, parameterized for the current candidate field, are used to generate expressions needed for implementation in hardware.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
