Topic: Tendencies and challenges in the vehicle displays and touch technology
Presentation in Ukrainian
Abstract: We overview capacitive touch displays development tendencies in the modern vehicles, display technology evolution, advanced display features, fundamental automotive industry standards for the radiated emissions and immunity to electromagnetic interferences. We overview the safety concerns and governing software development standards. We cover the typical requirements from customers, and how the touch display industry responds to the latest customer requirements by introducing the new products. As an example, we present a typical architecture of a modern capacitive touch controller for automotive applications.
Resume: A prolific inventor with 100+ US patents granted (#1 in Ukraine per data from https://idiyas.com/world) in the capacitive touch, active stylus, and fingerprint sensing. Proven record of inventions commercialization into new semiconductor products for the Consumer, Industrial, and Automotive markets with total revenue more billions of dollars. Manages a full cycle product development from concept idea to the complete embedded product by seeing the complete embedded system picture starting from user experience to design solution architecture, developing custom hardware, signal processing algorithms, and firmware for microcontrollers, building the prototypes for early new features demonstration and customer engagement.

Topic: Methods and means of creating Galois fields GF(pn) multipliers in FPGA for cyber-physical systems
Presentation in Ukrainian
Abstract: Cryptographic data protection relying on elliptical curves involves employing multipliers of Galois fields, a crucial aspect. In the realm of digital signatures based on elliptical curves, not only prime fields but also extended Galois fields GF(pm) find utility. Within the framework of FPGA devices, cores (VHDL descriptions of digital units) play a structural role. The Galois field multipliers generator constructs VHDL descriptions of multiplier schemes, delineates connections among their components, and generates VHDL descriptions of these components using the Quine-McCluskey Boolean functions minimization method. However, the algorithm’s execution time escalates with larger input data volumes, leading to generation times ranging from a few seconds to several tens of seconds for large characteristic field multipliers. Efforts to streamline design and minimize logic gate count in FPGA are vital for accelerating multiplier operations. The generator devises multipliers based on three variants, and efficacy of using multipliers across fields with differing characteristics is very important. Furthermore, the feasibility of employing extended Galois fields GF(dm) with characteristics d > 2 in data protection mechanisms is very important. It establishes a criterion for comparing data protection tools reliant on such Galois fields and identifies the optimal fields based on the chosen criterion when implemented according to a specific algorithm.
