Modern field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) are capable of implementing complex system on chip (SoC) and providing high performance. Therefore, FPGAs are finding wide application. A complex SoC generally contains embedded cryptographic cores to encrypt/decrypt data to ensure security. These cryptographic cores are computationally secure but their physical implementations can be compromised usi...

Traditional question answering systems typically employ a single pipeline architecture, consisting roughly of three components: question analysis, search, and answer selection (see e.g., (Clarke et al., 2001a; Hovy et al., 2000; Moldovan et al., 2000; Prager et al., 2000)). The knowledge sources utilized by these systems to date primarily focus on the corpus from which answers are to be retriev...
