The blockchain has fueled one of the most enthusiastic bursts of activity in applied
cryptography in years, but outstanding problems in security and privacy research must be …

Reconfigurable computing platforms offer the promise of substantially accelerating
computations through the concurrent nature of hardware structures and the ability of these …

By strictly separating reconfigurable logic from the host processor, current custom computing
systems suffer from a significant communication bottleneck. In this paper, we describe …

Reconfigurable hardware has the potential for significant performance improvements by
providing support for application-specific operations. We report our experience with …

General-purpose computing devices allow us to (1) customize computation after fabrication
and (2) conserve area by reusing expensive active circuitry for different functions in time. We …

This paper explores a novel way to incorporate hardware-programmable resources into a
processor microarchitecture to improve the performance of general-purpose applications …

Abstract Dynamically Programmable Gate Arrays (DPGAs) are programmable arrays which
allow the strategic reuse of limited resources. In so doing, DPGAs promise greater capacity …

This paper introduces Bitwise, a compiler that minimizes the bitwidth the number of bits used
to represent each operand for both integers and pointers in a program. By propagating 70 …
