PROFILE

Matías Piedra Pichardo

Over a three-month period, Matziaz developed and documented AES decryption capabilities for the Matziaz/TE2002B repository, focusing on robust digital design and reproducible builds. He implemented a VHDL-based AES decryption module with a 128-bit state machine, integrating AddRoundKey and SubBytes primitives, and established an incremental compilation structure using Quartus Prime. Matziaz enhanced project hygiene by cleaning obsolete simulation artifacts and improving documentation, including detailed setup instructions for Questa and Quartus toolchains. Leveraging VHDL, Verilog, and C++, his work improved onboarding, build traceability, and integration safety, resulting in a maintainable cryptographic hardware project with clear development processes.

April 2025 performance summary for Matziaz/TE2002B focused on delivering foundational AES decryption capabilities and strengthening project hygiene for repeatable builds and safer deployments. Key features delivered include the AES Decryption Module Core and 128-bit decryption state machine, with AddRoundKey and SubBytes primitives implemented. Project structure and tooling were enhanced with an incremental compilation layout and accompanying README and compilation reports. Repository cleanup removed obsolete simulation artifacts, introduced an Old File Folder, and integrated Rick's changes to align with current development practices. Build visibility improved via updates to AES.map.summary to reflect synthesis results and ensure traceability. Overall impact includes reduced build risk, faster iteration cycles, and clearer ownership of cryptographic components, enabling safer integration and release processes.
