AB2 multiplication over GF(2m) is an essential operation in modular exponentiation, which is the basic computation for most public key cryptosystems. The authors present a new architecture that can perform AB2 multiplication over GF(2m) in m clock cycles using cellular automata. The proposed cellular automata architecture is also well suited to VLSI implementation because it is simple, regular, modular, and cascadable.
