Guest Editors’ Introduction to Security in Reconfigurable Systems Design

This special issue on Security in Reconfigurable Systems Design reports on recent research results in the design and implementation of trustworthy reconfigurable systems. Five articles cover topics including power-efficient implementation of public-key cryptography, side-channel analysis of electromagnetic radiation, side-channel resistant design, design of robust unclonable functions on an FPGA, and Trojan detection in an FPGA bitstream.
