Abstract − The paper presents the implementation of the Advanced Encryption Algorithm (AES) in the measurement system, where the virtual instruments equipped with the multi-core processors are used. The encryption algorithm is first presented, then its modification to take advantage over the multi-core processor is described. Implementation of the latter in the virtual instrument working under the Real-Time (RT) mode is presented. Finally, test vectors are used to verify the validity of the modified algorithm and comparison between the traditional algorithm and the version using the parallel computations is performed. the measured quantities are converted into the form acceptable by the computer system, they must be sent to the second element of the system, i.e. data processing server. It is the central node of the system, responsible for storing the gathered information and performing the data processing. The scheme of the system is presented in Fig. 1.
