Abstract :
Copyright protection of sensitive data plays a significant part in the design of multimedia systems. This article introduces a hardware platform that enables both compression and encryption for data and code in a unified architecture. Besides being parameterizable, the platform features software tools for evaluating and optimizing specific multimedia applications.
