text: "Ever increasing demands on the performance of microchips are leading to ever
more complex semiconductor technologies with ever shrinking feature sizes. Complex
applications with high demands on safety and reliability, such as autonomous driving,
are simultaneously driving the requirements for test and diagnosis of VLSI circuits.
Throughout the life cycle of a microchip, uncertainties occur that affect its
timing behavior. For example, weak circuit structures, aging effects, or process
variations can lead to a change in the timing behavior of the circuit. While these
uncertainties do not necessarily lead to a change of the functional behavior,
they can lead to a reliability problem.\r\nWith modular and hybrid compaction
two test instruments are presented in this work that can be used for X-tolerant
test response compaction in the built-in Faster-than-At-Speed Test (FAST) which
is used to detect uncertainties in VLSI circuits. One challenge for test response
compaction during FAST is the high and varying X-rate at the outputs of the circuit
under test. By dividing the circuit outputs into test groups and separately compacting
these test groups using stochastic compactors, the modular compaction is able
to handle these high and varying X-rates.\r\nTo deal with uncertainties on logic
interconnects, a method for distinguishing crosstalk and process variation is
presented. In current semiconductor technologies, the number of parasitic coupling
capacitances between logic interconnects is growing. These coupling capacitances
can lead to crosstalk, which causes increased current flow in the logic interconnects,
which in turn can lead to increased electromigration. In the presented method,
delay maps describing the timing behavior of the circuit outputs at different
operating points are used to train artificial neural networks which classify the
tested circuits into fault-free and faulty."

zu Halbleitertechnologien mit immer kleiner werdenden Strukturgrößen. Anwendungen
mit hohen Ansprüchen an Sicherheit und Zuverlässigkeit, wie z.B. das autonome
Fahren, treiben gleichzeitig die Anforderungen an den Test hochintegrierter Schaltungen
an. Während des gesamten Lebenszyklus eines Mikrochips kommt es zu Unsicherheiten
im Zeitverhalten. So können z.B. schwache Schaltungsstrukturen, Alterungseffekte
oder Prozessvariationen zu einer Veränderung des Zeitverhaltens führen. Während
diese Unsicherheiten nicht zu einer Veränderung des funktionalen Verhaltens führen
müssen, können sie jedoch zu einem Zuverlässigkeitsproblem führen.\r\nMit der
modularen und der hybriden Kompaktierung werden in dieser Arbeit zwei Testinstrumente
vorgestellt, die für die X-tolerante Testantwortkompaktierung im eingebauten Hochgeschwindigkeitstest
verwendet werden können. Eine Herausforderung für die Testantwortkompaktierung
während des Hochgeschwindigkeitstests ist die hohe und variierende X-Rate an den
Ausgängen der zu testenden Schaltung. Durch die Einteilung der Schaltungsausgänge
in Prüfgruppen und die separierte Kompaktierung der Prüfgruppen mithilfe von stochastischen
Kompaktierern, können die vorgestellten Verfahren diese hohen und variierenden
X-Raten verarbeiten.\r\nFür den Umgang mit Unsicherheiten auf Verbindungsleitungen
der Logik-Schaltung wird ein Verfahren zur Unterscheidung von Übersprechen und
Prozessvariation vorgestellt. In aktuellen Halbleitertechnologien kommt es vermehrt
zu parasitären Koppelkapazitäten zwischen den Verbindungsleitungen. In dem vorgestellten
Verfahren werden künstliche neuronale Netze trainiert, um die Schaltungen in fehlerfrei
und fehlerhaft zu klassifizieren."

text: 'Wettstreit zwischen der Entwicklung neuer Hardwaretrojaner und entsprechender
Gegenmaßnahmen beschreiten Widersacher immer raffiniertere Wege um Schaltungsentwürfe
zu infizieren und dabei selbst fortgeschrittene Test- und Verifikationsmethoden
zu überlisten. Abgesehen von den konventionellen Methoden um einen Trojaner in
eine Schaltung für ein Field-programmable Gate Array (FPGA) einzuschleusen, können
auch die Entwurfswerkzeuge heimlich kompromittiert werden um einen Angreifer dabei
zu unterstützen einen erfolgreichen Angriff durchzuführen, der zum Beispiel Fehlfunktionen
oder ungewollte Informationsabflüsse bewirken kann. Diese Dissertation beschäftigt
sich hauptsächlich mit den beiden Blickwinkeln auf Hardwaretrojaner in rekonfigurierbaren
Systemen, einerseits der Perspektive des Verteidigers mit einer Methode zur Erkennung
von Trojanern auf der Bitstromebene, und andererseits derjenigen des Angreifers
mit einer neuartigen Angriffsmethode für FPGA Trojaner. Für die Verteidigung gegen
den Trojaner ``Heimtückische LUT'''' stellen wir die allererste erfolgreiche Gegenmaßnahme
vor, die durch Verifikation mittels Proof-carrying Hardware (PCH) auf der Bitstromebene
direkt vor der Konfiguration der Hardware angewendet werden kann, und präsentieren
ein vollständiges Schema für den Entwurf und die Verifikation von Schaltungen
für iCE40 FPGAs. Für die Gegenseite führen wir einen neuen Angriff ein, welcher
bösartiges Routing im eingefügten Trojaner ausnutzt um selbst im fertigen Bitstrom
in einem inaktiven Zustand zu verbleiben: Hierdurch kann dieser neuartige Angriff
zur Zeit weder von herkömmlichen Test- und Verifikationsmethoden, noch von unserer
vorher vorgestellten Verifikation auf der Bitstromebene entdeckt werden.'

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. This thesis mainly focuses on the two aspects of hardware Trojans in reconfigurable
systems, the defenders perspective which corresponds to the bitstream-level Trojan
detection technique, and the attackers perspective which corresponds to a novel
FPGA Trojan attack. From the defender's perspective, we introduce a first-ever
successful pre-configuration countermeasure against the ``Malicious LUT''-hardware
Trojan, by employing bitstream-level Proof-Carrying Hardware (PCH) and present
the complete design-and-verification flow for iCE40 FPGAs. Likewise, from an attackers
perspective, 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. 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 bitstream-level verification techniques.

text: "Previous research in proof-carrying hardware has established the feasibility
and utility of the approach, and provided a concrete solution for employing it
for the certification of functional equivalence checking against a specification,
but fell short in connecting it to state-of-the-art formal verification insights,
methods and tools. Due to the immense complexity of modern circuits, and verification
challenges such as the state explosion problem for sequential circuits, this restriction
of readily-available verification solutions severely limited the applicability
of the approach in wider contexts.\r\n\r\nThis thesis closes the gap between the
PCH approach and current advances in formal hardware verification, provides methods
and tools to express and certify a wide range of circuit properties, both functional
and non-functional, and presents for the first time prototypes in which circuits
that are implemented on actual reconfigurable hardware are verified with PCH methods.
Using these results, designers can now apply PCH to establish trust in more complex
circuits, by using more diverse properties which they can express using modern,
efficient property specification techniques."

text: "Die bisherige Forschung zu Proof-Carrying Hardware (PCH) hat dessen Machbarkeit
und Nützlichkeit gezeigt und einen Ansatz zur Zertifizierung der funktionalen
Äquivalenz zu einer Spezifikation geliefert, jedoch ohne PCH mit aktuellen Erkenntnissen,
Methoden oder Werkzeugen formaler Hardwareverifikation zu verknüpfen. Aufgrund
der Komplexität moderner Schaltungen und Verifikationsherausforderungen wie der
Zustandsexplosion bei sequentiellen Schaltungen, limitiert diese Einschränkung
sofort verfügbarer Verifikationslösungen die Anwendbarkeit des Ansatzes in einem
größeren Kontext signifikant.\r\n\r\nDiese Dissertation schließt die Lücke zwischen
PCH und modernen Entwicklungen in der Schaltungsverifikation und stellt Methoden
und Werkzeuge zur Verfügung, welche die Zertifizierung einer großen Bandbreite
von Schaltungseigenschaften ermöglicht; sowohl funktionale, als auch nicht-funktionale.
Überdies werden erstmals Prototypen vorgestellt in welchen Schaltungen mittels
PCH verifiziert werden, die auf tatsächlicher rekonfigurierbarer Hardware realisiert
sind. Dank dieser Ergebnisse können Entwickler PCH zur Herstellung von Vertrauen
in weit komplexere Schaltungen verwenden, unter Zuhilfenahme einer größeren Vielfalt
von Eigenschaften, welche durch moderne, effiziente Spezifikationstechniken ausgedrückt
werden können."

text: Automation becomes a vital part in the High-Performance computing system in
situational dynamics to take the decisions on the fly. Heterogeneous compute nodes
consist of computing resources such as CPU, GPU and FPGA and are the important
components of the high-performance computing system that can adapt the automation
to achieve the given goal. While implanting automation in the computing resources,
management of the resources is one of the essential aspects that need to be taken
care of. Tasks are continuously executed on the resources using its unique characteristics.
Effective scheduling is essential to make the best use of the characteristics
provided by each resource. Scheduling enables the execution of each task by allocating
resources so that they take advantage of all the characteristics of the compute
resources. Various scheduling heuristics can be used to create effective scheduling,
which might require the execution time to schedule the task efficiently. Providing
actual execution time is not possible in many cases; hence we can provide the
estimations for the actual execution time . The purpose of this master's thesis
is to design a predictive model or system that estimates the execution time required
to execute tasks using historical execution time data on the heterogeneous compute
nodes. In this thesis, regression techniques(SGD Regressor, Passive-Aggressive
Regressor, MLP Regressor, and XCSF Regressor) are compared in terms of their prediction
accuracy in order to determine which technique produces reliable predictions for
the execution time. These estimations must be generated in an online learning
environment in which data points arrive in any sequence, one by one, and the regression
model must learn from them. After evaluating the regression algorithms, it is
seen that the XCSF regressor provides the highest overall prediction accuracy
for the supplied data sets. The regression technique's parameters also play a
significant role in achieving an acceptable prediction accuracy. As a remark,
when using online learning in regression analysis, the accuracy depends upon both
the order of sequential data points that are coming to train the model and the
parameter configuration for each regression technique.

text: This bachelor thesis presents a C/C++ implementation of the XCS algorithm
for an embedded system and profiling results concerning the execution time of
the functions. These are then analyzed in relation to the input characteristics
of the examined learning environments and compared with related work. Three main
conclusions can be drawn from the measured results. First, the maximum size of
the population of the classifiers influences the runtime of the genetic algorithm;
second, the size of the input space has a direct effect on the execution time
of the matching function; and last, a larger action space results in a longer
runtime generating the prediction for the possible actions. The dependencies identified
here can serve to optimize the computational efficiency and make XCS more suitable
for embedded systems.

text: "Autonomous mobile robots are becoming increasingly more capable and widespread.
Reliable Obstacle avoidance is an integral part of autonomous navigation. This
involves real time interpretation and processing of a complex environment. Strict
time and energy constraints of a mobile autonomous system make efficient computation
extremely desirable. The benefits of employing Hardware/Software co-designed applications
are obvious and significant. Hardware accelerators are used for efficient processing
of the algorithms by exploiting parallelism. FPGAs are a class of hardware accelerators,
which\r\ncan contain hundreds of small execution units, and can be used for Hardware/Software
co-designed application. However, there is a reluctance when it comes to adoption
of these devices in well established application domains, such as Robotics, due
to a steep learning curve needed for FPGA application design. ReconROS has successfully
bridged the gap between robotic and FPGA application development, by providing
an intuitive, common development platform for robotic application development
for FPGA. It does so by integrating Robotics Operating System(ROS) which is an
industry and academia standard for robotics application development, with ReconOS,
an operating system for re-configurable hardware. In this thesis an obstacle avoidance
system is designed and implemented for an autonomous vehicle using ReconROS. The
objectives of the thesis is to demonstrate and explore ReconROS integration within
the ROS ecosystem and explore the design process within ReconROS framework, and
to demonstrate the effectiveness of Hardware Acceleration in Robotics, by analysing
the resulting architectures for Latency and Power Consumption."

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: "Modern machine learning (ML) techniques continue to move into the embedded
system space because traditional centralized compute resources do not suit certain
application domains, for example in mobile or real-time environments. Google’s
TensorFlow Lite (TFLite) framework supports this shift from cloud to edge computing
and makes ML inference accessible on resource-constrained devices. While it offers
the possibility to partially delegate computation to hardware accelerators, there
is no such “delegate” available to utilize the promising characteristics of reconfigurable
hardware.\r\nThis thesis incorporates modern platform FPGAs into TFLite by implementing
a modular delegate framework, which allows accelerators within the programmable
logic to take over the execution of neural network layers. To facilitate the necessary
hardware/software codesign, the FPGA delegate is based on the operating system
for reconfigurable\r\ncomputing (ReconOS), whose partial reconfiguration support
enables the instantiation of model-tailored accelerator architectures. In the
hardware back-end, a streaming-based prototype accelerator for the MobileNet model
family showcases the working order of the platform, but falls short of the desired
performance. Thus, it indicates the need for further exploration of alternative
accelerator designs, which the delegate could automatically synthesize to meet
a model’s demands."

text: "Secure hardware design is the most important aspect to be considered in addition
to functional correctness. Achieving hardware security in today’s globalized Integrated
Cir- cuit(IC) supply chain is a challenging task. One solution that is widely
considered to help achieve secure hardware designs is Information Flow Tracking(IFT).
It provides an ap- proach to verify that the systems adhere to security properties
either by static verification during design phase or dynamic checking during runtime.\r\nProof-Carrying
Hardware(PCH) is an approach to verify a functional design prior to using it in
hardware. It is a two-party verification approach, where the target party, the
consumer requests new functionalities with pre-defined properties to the producer.
In response, the producer designs the IP (Intellectual Property) cores with the
requested functionalities that adhere to the consumer-defined properties. The
producer provides the IP cores and a proof certificate combined into a proof-carrying
bitstream to the consumer to verify it. If the verification is successful, the
consumer can use the IP cores in his hardware. In essence, the consumer can only
run verified IP cores. Correctly applied, PCH techniques can help consumers to
defend against many unintentional modifications and malicious alterations of the
modules they receive. There are numerous published examples of how to use PCH
to detect any change in the functionality of a circuit, i.e., pairing a PCH approach
with functional equivalence checking for combinational or sequential circuits.
For non-functional properties, since opening new covert channels to leak secret
information from secure circuits is a viable attack vector for hardware trojans,
i.e., intentionally added malicious circuitry, IFT technique is employed to make
sure that secret/untrusted information never reaches any unclassified/trusted
outputs.\r\nThis master thesis aims to explore the possibility of adapting Information
Flow Tracking into a Proof-Carrying Hardware scenario. It aims to create a method
that combines Infor- mation Flow Tracking(IFT) with a PCH approach at bitstream
level enabling consumers to validate the trustworthiness of a module’s information
flow without the computational costs of a complete flow analysis."
