As the Internet of Things promises a proliferation in the number of distributed and unsupervised mobile computing devices, lightweight device authentication protocols for counterfeit prevention and secure communication becomes paramount. Physically unclonable function (PUF) primitives have recently been proposed as a means for replacing non-volatile memories (which are prone to physical attacks) for generating and storing cryptographic keys for security-based functions. This research proposal addresses the reliability issues involved in designing a static random access memory (SRAM)-based PUF circuit block, and then integrates it into an authentication circuit for use in a hardware-based security subsystems. The key research objectives of this proposal are: (i) the design of an SRAM-based PUF primitive, (ii) the development of design methodologies to mitigate the impact of process, voltage, and temperature induced variability - issues more prevalent in nanoscale CMOS technologies, and (iii) the realization of the SRAM PUF primitive in a low-overhead device authentication system.

随着物联网有望在分布式和无监督的移动计算设备的数量中扩散，轻巧的设备身份验证协议用于伪造预防和安全通信变得至关重要。最近提出了物理上无统治的功能（PUF）原始功能，以替换用于生成和存储基于安全功能的加密密钥的非挥发性记忆（容易进行物理攻击）。该研究建议解决了设计基于静态的随机访问存储器（SRAM）的PUF电路块所涉及的可靠性问题，然后将其集成到身份验证电路中，以用于基于硬件的安全子系统。该提案的关键研究目标是：（i）基于SRAM的PUF原始性的设计，（ii）开发设计方法来减轻过程，电压和温度诱导的可变性的影响 - 问题更多 在纳米级CMOS技术中普遍存在，（iii）在低空设备身份验证系统中SRAM PUF原始的实现。
