    • An investigation into the power-performance trade-off in memristor-augmented sense amplifiers for nanoscale SRAM 

      Musiiwa, P. B.; Rushambwa, M. C.; Gwamuri, J.; Kanhukamwe, Q. C.; Tyavlovsky, A.; Svistun, A. I. (БНТУ, 2025)
      As technology ramps up to high nodes, SRAM sense amplifiers struggle suffer from increasing static power. The paper proposes memristors as non-volatile, tunable loads in cross-coupled differential sense amplifiers as a remedy. Simulation in a 45 nm node reveals 69.2 % leakage power reduction, making the solution appealing for low-power usage. The static power reduction comes at ...

    • The silicon shield: a synergistic, hardware-anchored architecture for next-generation cyber resilience 

      Musiiwa, P. B.; Rushambwa, M. C.; Gwamuri, J.; Kanhukamwe, Q. C.; Tyavlovsky, A.; Svistun, A. I. (БНТУ, 2025)
      The escalating sophistication of cyber threats, which now routinely target the hardware layer, has rendered traditional software-only security models insufficient.1 This paper challenges the long-held assumption that hardware constitutes an inherently trusted foundation, a premise invalidated by the rise of physical, side-channel, and supply chain attacks. It introduces the ...
