In this paper, a novel architecture dedicated to image processing is presented. The most original aspect of the approach is the use of a System On Chip implemented in a FPGA. We show the main advantages of such a system based on a CMOS imaging device and a programmable chip. With its structure, the system proposes a high degree of versatility and allows the implementation of parallel image proc...

In the last 20-30 years, the world of modern cryptography has been largely dominated by traditional systems such as the Data Encryption Standard and the RSA algorithm. Such systems have provided a secure way for storing and transmitting information and they are nowadays incorporated in many network protocols and secure storage media. More recently, the increasing advance of crypto-analytical te...
