Hardware Trojan Detection
Extracted a limited number of input patterns using general patterns, random patterns, and SAT based input patterns that can achieve 100% gate coverage.
Additionally, implemented and analyzed the above technique on industry standard benchmarks (ISCAS-85).
Used the technique of extracting the limited number of input patterns for a newly fabricated integrated circuit and then excite the tested circuit.
Software, tool used: MATLAB, Python, MiniSAT
Physical Unclonable Function
Designed a mathematical model to generate challenge response pairs (CRPs) for different Arbiter PUFs (Arbiter PUF, XOR-Arbiter PUF).
Used modeling attack to attack the PUFs data obtained from the previous steps.
Worked on possible solutions to design a modeling attack resilient PUF for device identification and authentication.
Effect of Parametric Variations and Circuit Level Performance of Carbon Nano Tube Field Effect Transistor.
It was a yearlong thesis which is a requirement for the fulfillment of the B.Sc in EEE degree. The research focus was on ballistic transport mechanism of carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET). The outcome of the thesis was the analysis of the performance of the CNTFET due to variance in the parameters under which a CNTFET operates and to find the optimal operating conditions to maximize the efficiency of this device by increasing the ON-OFF current ratio.
