text: Verification of software and processor hardware usually proceeds separately,
software analysis relying on the correctness of processors executing machine instructions.
This assumption is valid as long as the software runs on standard CPUs that have
been extensively validated and are in wide use. However, for processors exploiting
custom instruction set extensions to meet performance and energy constraints the
validation might be less extensive, challenging the correctness assumption. In
this paper we present a novel formal approach for hardware/software co-verification
targeting processors with custom instruction set extensions. We detail two different
approaches for checking whether the hardware fulfills the requirements expected
by the software analysis. The approaches are designed to explore a trade-off between
generality of the verification and computational effort. Then, we describe the
integration of software and hardware analyses for both techniques and describe
a fully automated tool chain implementing the approaches. Finally, we demonstrate
and compare the two approaches on example source code with custom instructions,
using state-of-the-art software analysis and hardware verification techniques.

text: The battle of developing hardware Trojans and corresponding countermeasures
has taken adversaries towards ingenious ways of compromising hardware designs
by circumventing even advanced testing and verification methods. Besides conventional
methods of inserting Trojans into a design by a malicious entity, the design flow
for field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) can also be surreptitiously compromised
to assist the attacker to perform a successful malfunctioning or information leakage
attack. The advanced stealthy malicious look-up-table (LUT) attack activates a
Trojan only when generating the FPGA bitstream and can thus not be detected by
register transfer and gate level testing and verification. However, also this
attack was recently revealed by a bitstream-level proof-carrying hardware (PCH)
approach. In this paper, we present a novel attack that leverages malicious routing
of the inserted Trojan circuit to acquire a dormant state even in the generated
and transmitted bitstream. The Trojan's payload is connected to primary inputs/outputs
of the FPGA via a programmable interconnect point (PIP). The Trojan is detached
from inputs/outputs during place-and-route and re-connected only when the FPGA
is being programmed, thus activating the Trojan circuit without any need for a
trigger logic. Since the Trojan is injected in a post-synthesis step and remains
unconnected in the bitstream, the presented attack can currently neither be prevented
by conventional testing and verification methods nor by recent bitstream-level
verification techniques.

text: "Robots are becoming increasingly autonomous and more capable. Because of
a limited portable energy budget by e.g. batteries, and more demanding algorithms,
an efficient computation is of interest. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs)
for example can provide fast and efficient processing and the Robot Operating
System (ROS) is a popular\r\nmiddleware used for robotic applications. The novel
ReconROS combines version 2 of the Robot Operating System with ReconOS, a framework
for integrating reconfigurable hardware. It provides a unified interface between
software and hardware. ReconROS is evaluated in this thesis by implementing a
Sobel filter as the video processing application, running on a Zynq-7000 series
System on Chip. Timing measurements were taken of execution and transfer times
and were compared to theoretical values. Designing the hardware implementation
is done by C code using High Level Synthesis and with the interface and functionality
provided by ReconROS. An important aspect is the publish/subscribe mechanism of
ROS. The Operating System interface functions for publishing and subscribing are
reasonably fast at below 10 ms for a 1 MB color VGA image. The main memory interface
performs well at higher data sizes, crossing 100 MB/s at 20 kB and increasing
to a maximum of around 150 MB/s. Furthermore, the hardware implementation introduces
consistency to the execution times and performs twice as fast as the software
implementation."

text: 'Approximate circuits trade-off computational accuracy against improvements
in hardware area, delay, or energy consumption. IP core vendors who wish to create
such circuits need to convince consumers of the resulting approximation quality.
As a solution we propose proof-carrying approximate circuits: The vendor creates
an approximate IP core together with a certificate that proves the approximation
quality. The proof certificate is bundled with the approximate IP core and sent
off to the consumer. The consumer can formally verify the approximation quality
of the IP core at a fraction of the typical computational cost for formal verification.
In this paper, we first make the case for proof-carrying approximate circuits
and then demonstrate the feasibility of the approach by a set of synthesis experiments
using an exemplary approximation framework.'

text: "On the circuit level, the design paradigm Approximate Computing seeks to
trade off computational accuracy against a target metric, e.g., energy consumption.
This trade-off is possible for many applications due to their inherent resiliency
against inaccuracies.\r\nIn the past, several automated approximation frameworks
have been presented, which either utilize designated approximation techniques
or libraries to replace approximable circuit parts with inaccurate versions. The
frameworks invoke a search algorithm to iteratively explore the search space of
performance degraded circuits, and validate their quality individually. \r\nIn
this paper, we propose to reverse this procedure. Rather than exploring the search
space, we delineate the approximate parts of the search space which are guaranteed
to lead to valid approximate circuits. Our methodology is supported by formal
verification and independent of approximation techniques. Eventually, the user
is provided with quality bounds of the individual approximable circuit parts.
Consequently, our approach guarantees that any approximate circuit which implements
these parts within the determined quality constraints satisfies the global quality
constraints, superseding a subsequent quality verification.\r\nIn our experimental
results, we present the runtimes of our approach."

text: Radiation tolerance in FPGAs is an important field of research particularly
for reliable computation in electronics used in aerospace and satellite missions.
The motivation behind this research is the degradation of reliability in FPGA
hardware due to single-event effects caused by radiation particles. Redundancy
is a commonly used technique to enhance the fault-tolerance capability of radiation-sensitive
applications. However, redundancy comes with an overhead in terms of excessive
area consumption, latency, and power dissipation. Moreover, the redundant circuit
implementations vary in structure and resource usage with the redundancy insertion
algorithms as well as number of used redundant stages. The radiation environment
varies during the operation time span of the mission depending on the orbit and
space weather conditions. Therefore, the overheads due to redundancy should also
be optimized at run-time with respect to the current radiation level. In this
paper, we propose a technique called Dynamic Reliability Management (DRM) that
utilizes the radiation data, interprets it, selects a suitable redundancy level,
and performs the run-time reconfiguration, thus varying the reliability levels
of the target computation modules. DRM is composed of two parts. The design-time
tool flow of DRM generates a library of various redundant implementations of the
circuit with different magnitudes of performance factors. The run-time tool flow,
while utilizing the radiation/error-rate data, selects a required redundancy level
and reconfigures the computation module with the corresponding redundant implementation.
Both parts of DRM have been verified by experimentation on various benchmarks.
The most significant finding we have from this experimentation is that the performance
can be scaled multiple times by using partial reconfiguration feature of DRM,
e.g., 7.7 and 3.7 times better performance results obtained for our data sorter
and matrix multiplier case studies compared with static reliability management
techniques. Therefore, DRM allows for maintaining a suitable trade-off between
computation reliability and performance overhead during run-time of an application.

text: 'Automated synthesis of approximate circuits via functional approximations
is of prominent importance to provide efficiency in energy, runtime, and chip
area required to execute an application. Approximate circuits are usually obtained
either through analytical approximation methods leveraging approximate transformations
such as bit-width scaling or via iterative search-based optimization methods when
a library of approximate components, e.g., approximate adders and multipliers,
is available. For the latter, exploring the extremely large design space is challenging
in terms of both computations and quality of results. While the combination of
both methods can create more room for further approximations, the \textit{Design
Space Exploration}~(DSE) becomes a crucial issue. In this paper, we present such
a hybrid synthesis methodology that applies a low-cost analytical method followed
by parallel stochastic search-based optimization. We address the DSE challenge
through efficient pruning of the design space and skipping unnecessary expensive
testing and/or verification steps. The experimental results reveal up to 10.57x
area savings in comparison with both purely analytical or search-based approaches. '
