Attack-Resistant Energy-Efficient SoC for Smart & Secure IoT

Dr. Vivek De
Intel Fellow at Intel Corporation. IEEE Fellow

Abstract: We will discuss SoC design challenges and opportunities for smart and secure cyberphysical systems in the emerging world of IoT, focusing on two distinct areas: (1) how to deliver uncompromising performance and user experience while minimizing energy consumption, and (2) how to provide cryptographic-quality “roots of trust” in silicon and resistance to physical side channel attacks with minimal overhead. We will present SoC designs that span a wide range of performance and power across diverse platforms and workloads, and achieve robust near-threshold-voltage (NTV) operation in nanoscale CMOS. We will discuss techniques to overcome the challenges posed by device parameter variations, supply noises, temperature excursions, aging-induced degradations, workload and activity changes, and reliability considerations. True Random Number Generator (TRNG) and Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) circuits, the two critical silicon building blocks for generating dynamic and static entropy for encryption keys and digital fingerprints, respectively, will be presented. We will also discuss power and electromagnetic physical side-channel-attack detection and mitigation techniques for enabling robust hardware security.

From Deep Scaling To Deep Intelligence

Dr. Rajiv Joshi

Watson Research Center IBM

Abstract: Moore’s law driving the advancement in the semiconductor industry over decades has been coming to a screeching halt and many researchers are convinced that it is almost dead. After revival and promise of artificial intelligence (AI) due to increased computational performance and memory bandwidth aided by Moore’s law, there is overwhelming enthusiasm in researchers for increasing the pace of VLSI industry. AI uses many neural network techniques for computation which involves training and inference. The advancement in AI requires energy efficient, low power hardware systems. This is more so for servers, main processors, Internet of Things (IoT) and System on chip (SOC) applications and newer applications in cognitive computing.
In the light of AI, this talk focuses on important circuit techniques for lowering power, improving performance and functionality in nanoscale VLSI design in the midst of variability. The same techniques can be used for AI specific accelerators. Accelerator development for reduction in power and throughput improvement for both edge and data-centric accelerators compared to GPUs used for convolutional Neural (CNN) and Deep Neural (DNN) Networks are described. The talk covers memory (volatile and nonvolatile) solutions for CNN/DNN applications at extremely low Vmin. The talk also focuses on in-memory computation. Binary and analog applications using non-volatile memories (NVM) are illustrated. Accelerator architectures for bitwise convolution that features massive parallelism with high energy efficiency are described for both binary and analog memories. In our earlier work, numerical experiment results show that the binary CNN accelerator on a digital ReRAM-crossbar achieves a peak throughput of 792 GOPS at the power consumption of 4.5 mW, which is 1.61 times faster and 296 times more energy-efficient than a high-end GPU. Finally, the talk summarizes challenges and future directions for circuit applications for edge and data-centric accelerators.
