ANR COGITO(2013-2017)
The COGITO project plans to adapt a technology for runtime code generation developed, by the CEA. This technology, called deGoal, is fundamentally different from the traditional approaches (interpretation and dynamic compilation): ad hoc code generators compiled statically and are embedded in the target application, each code generator being dedicated for each computing kernel whose binary code will be updated at runtime. Thus, these code generators are lightweight and very fast, allowing to target small architectures that are usually out of reach of the standard techniques for dynamic code generation such as the small microcontrollers used in secure devices. Furthermore, we are confident about the ability of our solution to combine well with other software and hardware state-of-the-art countermeasures for cryptography.
