“Capstone: A Capability-based Foundation for Trustless Secure Memory Access”

EH 2430 Engineering Hall, University of California, Irvine, Irvine, CA, United States

Speaker: Jason Zhijingcheng Yu Date and Time: Monday, August 7th, 11:00 am Location: EH 2430 Abstract: Capability-based memory isolation is a promising new architectural primitive. Software can access lowlevel memory only via capability handles rather than raw pointers, which provides a natural interface to enforce security restrictions. Existing architectural capability designs such as CHERI provide spatial safety […]

Pareto Exploration Methodology for Future Logic Technology Options in Domain-Specific Processors

EH 2430 Engineering Hall, University of California, Irvine, Irvine, CA, United States

Scaling of Si-CMOS based logic processor circuits is hitting limits on application-level performance (throughput and latency), dynamic and leakage power, and even cost characteristics. For that reason, several researchers have started to study alternatives based on so-called beyond CMOS devices.
