Abstract :
Modular arithmetic is typically the computational bottleneck in a hardware implementation of public key cryptography algorithms. This paper focuses on an implementation of modular multiplication on the Quicksilver COSM adaptive computing machine as a run-time-reconfigurable user authentication context candidate. The design is targeted specifically to the COSM adaptive computing machine, taking into account the underlying architecture of the device.
