Abstract
In order to evaluate their performance in software, all Profile 1 candidates were subjected to benchmark tests. This chapter briefly describes the testing framework developed by eSTREAM for this purpose, and summarizes the results of the performance tests conducted on the eight Profile 1 finalists.
The work described in this chapter has been partly supported by the European Commission under contract IST-2002-507932 (ECRYPT), by the Fund for Scientific Research – Flanders (FWO), and the Chaire France Telecom pour la sécurité des réseaux de télécommunications.
