Abstract

In this paper, we introduce an architecture for 
performing a recursive pipeline algorithm for use in optimizing 
the performance of the multiplicative inverse operations in 
Galois Field GF(2k). The latter is extensively used in performing 
the S-Box byte-Substitution in the AES cryptosystem. Using 
composite fields the operations are recursively decomposed into 
lower level ones which are mapped into pipelines. Thus, several 
gate reductions will be obtained and gate sharing. Eventually, 
this enhances the performance of computing the multiplicative 
inverse.
