Investigation and improvement of power analysis attacks

Timing, power analysis and electromagnetic analysis attacks have been much of a concern since about a decade already. So far, publications on side channel attacks did not yet report on elaborated measurement techniques or alternative means by which the measured data can be processed, which allow to reach the theoretical limits computed for side channel attacks. So, my work will investigate the possible approaches which may permit to come closer to these theoretical limits.
