Cloud computing offers a variable-cost payment scheme that allows cloud customers to specify the price they are willing to pay for renting spot instances to run their applications at much lower costs than fixed payment schemes, and…
Cloud computing refers to a paradigm shift to overall IT solutions while raising the accessibility, scalability and effectiveness through its enabling technologies. However, migrated cloud platforms and services cost benefits as well as…
A debate in the research community has buzzed in the background for years: should large-scale Internet services be centralized or decentralized? Now-common centralized cloud and web services have downsides -- user lock-in and loss of…
Most consumer IoT devices are vertically integrated with cloud-side infrastructure. Such architectures present enormous risk to user data, exacerbated by vendor heterogeneity and the inability for users to audit cloud-side activity. A more…
Sophisticated mass attacks, especially when exploiting zero-day vulnerabilities, have the potential to cause destructive damage to organizations and critical infrastructure. To timely detect and contain such attacks, collaboration among the…
Emerging crypto economies still hemorrhage digital assets because legacy wallets leak private keys at almost every layer of the software stack, from user-space libraries to kernel memory dumps. This paper solves that twin crisis of security…
We present Airtnt, a novel scheme that enables users with CPUs that support Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) and remote attestation to rent out computing time on secure enclaves to untrusted users. Airtnt makes use of the attestation…
Cloud Computing has been envisioned as the next generation architecture of IT Enterprise. The Cloud computing concept offers dynamically scalable resources provisioned as a service over the Internet. Economic benefits are the main driver…
The cloud's flexibility and promise of seamless auto-scaling notwithstanding, its ability to meet service level objectives (SLOs) typically calls for some form of control in resource usage. This seemingly traditional problem gives rise to…
Cloud service providers offer their customers with on-demand and cost-effective services, scalable computing, and network infrastructures. Enterprises migrate their services to the cloud to utilize the benefit of cloud computing such as…
Increasingly, business opportunities available to fabless design teams in the semiconductor industry far exceed those addressable with on-prem compute resources. An attractive option to capture these electronic design automation (EDA)…
