## Overview

This repository is a CBTC AES-GCM benchmarking project, with benchmark applications, a crypto API, and result-analysis tooling. The sampled source shows a standalone PSA AES-GCM smoke test and the public crypto API, but most benchmark, message, statistics, platform, timer, and analysis implementations were not sampled. The README is empty, so the graph preserves capabilities indicated by the tree without guessing their runtime wiring.
