  1. Request approval from DASC for the formation of an IP Encryption Study Group Proposal prepared by: Gary Delp VSI Alliance CTO

  2. Industry Need • Mechanisms for the protection of IP Value enables growth of the IP market in a disaggregated ecosystem • A standard for protected and targeted information exchange between providers, tools, and users is needed. • VHDL 1076 and Verilog 1800 already have encryption mechanisms in place, but … • The specification of use, display, and output rights, while referenced would benefit from a standard structure • The specification of a standard set of use rights would simplify the use, e.g., • simulate but not trace, simulate but not synthesize, output in encrypted form, output obfuscated, output clear text, etc. • The mechanism for obscuring and protecting the granted rights will benefit from standardization

  3. Proposal • VSI Donates the white paper and activities to IEEE study group • 1 paper, 2 recommendations, 3 related standards • Study group works with P1800 and P1076 on the recommendations • Study group develops PAR for: • Generic encryptions for file types not already standardized, e.g. EDIF • Format of rights management block including “vendor extensions” • how the rights allowed to particular users are specified • Specification of the default subset of rights, including names and expectations • What the standard set of “rights” allow • Profile/Recommendation definition for algorithm use and key management among the IP providers to achieve interoperability in tool flows

  4. Study Group Members • VSI Alliance IP Encryption working group forms the seed of the Study Group Names confirmed for this slide: • Jim Robinson, Dave Graubart – Synplicity • Gary Delp – LSI • David Tran – Synopsys • Devin Sundaram, Subroto Datta – Altera • John Shields, Malathi Boypati, Jaggi Balasubramian – Mentor • Nick Sgoupis – CAST Potential of others with lower cost of entry

  5. Relationship to other IEEE standards • Clear relation to 1076 and 1800 • Some interworking is optimal, impact on 1076 and 1800 is minimal, uses mechanisms already in place. • The “generic” form of file encryption is suggested for of covering all unspecified languages, with the producer deciding the suitability of the technique • This is preferred over many different mechanisms

  6. Q & A? Thank you
