We propose a new technique called Di erential Cluster Analysis for side-channel key recovery attacks. This technique uses cluster analysis to detect internal collisions and it combines features from previously known collision attacks and Di erential Power Analysis. It captures more general leakage features and can be applied to algorithmic collisions as well as implementation speci c collisions...

We analyze the security of the SEED block cipher against di erential attacks. SEED is a 16-round Feistel cipher developed by the Korea Information Security Agency. The SEED proposers estimated their cipher against di erential cryptanalysis in a self-estimation document and found a six-round di erential characteristic with probability 2 130 . We present an improved method of examining the di ere...

In this paper we deene a compositional semantics for a generalized composition operator on logic programs. Static and dynamic inheritance as well as composition by union of clauses can all be obtained by specializing the general operator. The semantics is based on the notion of diierential programs, logic programs annotated with declarations that establish the programs' external interfaces.

First order neutral di¤erential equations are studied and su‰cient conditions are derived for every solution to be oscillatory. Our approach is to reduce the oscillation of neutral di¤erential equations to the nonexistence of eventually positive solutions of non-neutral di¤erential inequalities. Our results extend and improve several known results in the literature.

We relax one constraint on...

This work presents the arguments for the possibility of approximating some discontinuous dynamical systems with continuous or even smooth dynamical systems. The discontinuous di€erential equation, which describes the system, is transformed into a di€erential inclusion and then into a di€erential equation with continuous or smooth right-hand side. As an example a generalization of the equations ...

| Four schemes for linearizing the transconductance of the basic di erential pair in subthreshold CMOS are examined. They are: source degeneration via (1) diode-connected transistors, (2) a single di usor and (3) symmetric di usors, and (4) multiple asymmetric di erential pairs. We derive equations for the di erential output current for each linearizing technique. We apply a maximally at optimi...

In a di erential equations course, one typically studies a few classes of problems for which there are closed form solutions, such as ordinary, linear di erential equations with constant coe cients. Most problems of interest in real world simulation problems are much more complex, however, involving domains of two or more dimensions or nonlinear e ects, yielding partial di erential equations or...

ADi erentially controlled monolithic LC-VCO along with a di erential charge pump are used to implement a di erential PLL for substrate noise immunity. The di erential VCO control is achieved with minimal increase in the power consumption and without sacri cing the tuning range. In a 0.5 m CMOS technology the measured VCO phase noise is -119dBc @1.0MHz and the tuning range is 26% of the 1.25GHz ...

In this paper, the classic straightening out theorem from di erential geometry is used to derive necessary and su cient conditions for locally converting rectangular di erential inclusions to constant rectangular di erential inclusions. Both scalar and coupled di erential inclusions are considered. The results presented in this paper have use in the area of computer aided veri cation of hybrid ...
