1-Pseudorandom number generators (PRNGs) are used frequently in secure data processing algorithms. Randomness measuring is an essential test, performed on these generators, that help to range the security of the designed algorithm with respect to assure strong messingup of the processed data. This paper describes a solution for accelerating statistical tests of Diehard Battery based on reconfigurable hardware, benefiting from task parallelization and high frequencies. With this proposal, users can obtain a fast, cheap and reliable measure of the randomness properties that can enable a complete exploration of the design space to produce better devices in shorter times.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
