With rapid advances in information, computer and communication technologies and systems, huge amount of data has to be processed, stored and exchanged among users, which makes data integrity and information security very important issues. To protect the data and make it secure, various cryptographic primitives are being incorporated in many standards and protocols and implemented in a wide range of platforms; from powerful computers used in servers and base stations to lightweight cryptosystems used in wireless devices. The performance of cryptosystems rely heavily on efficient cryptographic computations, specially in resource constrained embedded systems, such as smart cards, RFID tags, Internet of Things, and nodes in wireless sensor networks, where the power consumption, memory, and bandwidth are very limited. Reliable and efficient design and implementation of cryptographic computations are challenging due to their complex nature. The main objectives of the research are summarized as follows:

随着信息、计算机和通信技术和系统的快速进步，用户之间需要处理、存储和交换大量数据，这使得数据完整性和信息安全变得非常重要。为了保护数据并确保其安全，各种加密原语被纳入许多标准和协议中，并在各种平台上实施；从服务器和基站中使用的强大计算机到无线设备中使用的轻量级加密系统。密码系统的性能在很大程度上依赖于高效的密码计算，特别是在资源受限的嵌入式系统中，例如智能卡、RFID标签、物联网和无线传感器网络中的节点，这些系统的功耗、内存和带宽都非常有限。由于其复杂性，可靠且高效的密码计算设计和实现具有挑战性。研究的主要目标概括如下：
