Altera Highlights FPGA-Based Network Security and Traffic Management At Communications Design Conference

What: Altera Corporation (NASDAQ:ALTR) will present two papers at the 2003 Communications Design Conference describing field-programmable gate array (FPGA)-based methodologies that improve network performance and security. The presentation titles are:

-- Implementing Fast, Flexible Traffic Management Functions This paper discusses implementing traffic management functions in FPGAs with a focus on memory interfacing, one of the most
important aspects of traffic management.

Class Number P234
October 1, 2003
2:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Room Number A6

-- RSA-Based Cryptography in FPGAs This paper will discuss the mathematics and fundamental aspects of RSA-based cryptography and explain why the techniques and methods used in current software and ASIC/ASSP approaches do not work with FPGAs, while demonstrating how to implement FPGA-based RSA efficiently.

Class Number P315
October 2, 2003
8:45 a.m. to 10:15 a.m.
Room Number A7

When: Communications Design Conference: September 29 to October 2, 2003

Where: San Jose Convention Center, San Jose, CA
