| dc.description | This thesis proposes an improved procedure to watermark Intellectual Property
Cores at Register Transfer Level using Genetic Algorithms. First, watermarking
signature and Intellectual Property Core's behavioral description are translated into
Finite State Machines in preparation for merging. The resulting Finite State Machine
contains the watermarked Intellectual Property Core maintaining its original
functionality without disruption. Next, a reduction procedure is applied to the watermarked
design. At this stage, dealing with hanging states is challenging, if any
of these is deleted, the watermark could be removed and possibly the original Intellectual
Property Core functionality would not be disrupted. Both Finite State
Machine merging and reduction are NP-Complete problems. In this study an improved
objective function is proposed to accurately model the Finite State Machine
reduction problem while applying Genetic Algorithms as optimization techniques at
both stages. Empirical results show a significant improvement in terms of the number
of final hanging states and watermark embedding strength as regards previous
reported approaches.
Results of applying the proposed technique to watermark a number of Finite
State Machines are presented and discussed. | |
