Abstract. A constraint-based watermarking technique has been introduced for the protection of intellectual properties such as hardware, software, algorithms, and solutions to hard ...
We lay out a theoretical framework to evaluate watermarking techniques for intellectual property protection (IPP). Based on this framework, we analyze two watermarking techniques ...
Many techniques have been proposed in the past for the protection of VLSI design IPs (intellectual property). CAD tools and algorithms are intensively used in all phases of modern...
In many modern designs, timing is either a key optimization goal and/or a mandatory constraint. We propose the first intellectual property protection technique using watermarking ...
Linear programming (LP) in its many forms has proven to be an indispensable tool for expressing and solving optimization problems in numerous domains. We propose the first set of ...
