GPU Accelerated AES Algorithm.

It has been widely accepted that Graphics Processing Units (GPU) is one of promising schemes for encryption acceleration, in particular, the support of complex mathematical calculations such as integer and logical operations makes the implementation easier; however, complexes such as parallel granularity, memory allocation still imposes a burden on real world implementations. In this paper, we propose a new approach for Advanced Encryption Standard accelerations, including both encryption and decryption. Specifically, we adapt the Electronic Code Book mode for cryptographic transformation, look up table scheme for fast lookup, and a granularity of one state per thread for thread scheduling. Our experimental results offer researchers a good understanding on GPU architectures and software accelerations. In addition, both our source code and experimental results are freely available.
