Hardware Acceleration of Cryptographic Systems
Rejected
Session Description
- The session will cover the fundamentals of today's cryptographic systems that drive the blockchain space and the need to accelerate micro-operations on hardware like ASICs, FPGAs and GPUs.
- The talk will mainly highlight the benefits of using FPGA for research and development of accelerators for proof systems within blockchain systems.
- Proving work or stake on the blockchain involves large field operations on an elliptic curve which proves to be highly compute and memory intensive.
- The talk will discuss ways to streamline this high compute and memory demands by leveraging the inherent parallelism offered by FPGA devices.
- The FOSS tools and projects utilized in the development of the acceleration systems and our contributions to these tools will also be discussed.
