Hardware Acceleration with LWECC Approach on Memory and Router Optimization in Communication Applications

The fast expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) has increased the need for strong security measures to protect the enormous network of interconnected devices. This paper proposes a unique approach that combines optimization, intuitive design principles, and Least Weighted Elliptic Curve Cryptography (LWECC) to improve IoT device security while reducing power consumption. The proposed optimization strategy focuses on lowering computational overhead, which is critical for IoT devices with limited energy and processing power. The proposed method significantly reduces the amount of energy required for cryptographic operations by carefully selecting appropriate elliptic curves and optimizing cryptographic algorithms, ensuring that IoT devices may continue to function without compromising security. Furthermore, by selecting elliptic curves with minimal attack vulnerability, the use of LWECC provides an additional layer of protection. This technique ensures that, even in the face of emerging threats, IoT devices remain highly resilient, reducing the chance of security breaches while preserving functionality without using excessive power. Experimental results show a power consumption of only 0.156 W and 0.25 W for memory and router topologies, respectively, with an error margin of 0.01. The stated error margin pertains to the simulation-based evaluation of transmission-level data handling within the LWECC-enabled memory/router pipeline, rather than the risk of physical memory-cell failure or fabrication yield. The value shows the maximum amount of packet/data-stream loss detected during encrypted data transfer, rather than hardware memory reliability.
