In this paper, we present a low power high temperature 80C51 microcontroller. The low power optimizations are applied at gate and architectural level, by using extensive clock and data gating, and by completely redesigning the micro-architecture. We also present original clock gating techniques: pre-computed clock gating. To validate these techniques, extensive comparisons with other realizatio...

In this paper we present a variation of the template attack classification process that can be applied to block ciphers when the plaintext and ciphertext used are unknown. In a näıve implementation this attack can be applied to any round of a block cipher. We also show that when a block cipher is implemented with the masking countermeasure a similar attack can be applied to the first round of t...

A meristem-specific gene coding for deoxyuridine triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.23) (dUTPase) in tomato was isolated, and its developmental expression in vegetative and floral apices was monitored. An 18-kD polypeptide, P18, was isolated as a consequence of its accumulation in arrested floral meristems of anantha mutant plants. The corresponding cDNA isolated from an expression library exhibited a 40...

Parvalbumin-expressing fast-spiking (FS) cells are interconnected via GABAergic and electrical synapses and represent a major class of inhibitory interneurons in the neocortex. Synaptic connections among FS cells are critical for regulating network oscillations in the mature neocortex. However, it is unclear whether synaptic connections among FS interneurons also play a central role in the gene...
