Digital equipment such as computers, telecommunication systems and instruments use microprocessors that operate at high frequencies allowing them to carry out millions or even billions of operations per second. A disturbance in the…
A securely maintained key is the premise upon which data stored and transmitted by ubiquitously deployed resource limited devices, such as those in the Internet of Things (IoT), are protected. However, many of these devices lack a secure…
Interferometry of single particles with internal degrees of freedom is investigated. We discuss the interference patterns obtained when an internal state evolution device is inserted into one or both the paths of the interferometer. The…
Solid-State Drive (SSD) firmware manages complex internal states, including flash memory maintenance. Due to nondeterministic I/O operations, traditional testing methods struggle to rapidly achieve coverage of firmware code areas that…

We study numerically and analytically the instabilities associated with phase separation in a solid layer on which an external material ux is imposed. The first instability is localized within a boundary layer at the exposed free surface by…
To bring complex systems into real world environments in a safe manner, they will have to be robust to uncertainties - both in the environment and the system. This paper investigates the safety of control systems under input disturbances,…
Read disturbance in modern DRAM chips is a widespread phenomenon and is reliably used for breaking memory isolation, a fundamental building block for building robust systems. RowHammer and RowPress are two examples of read disturbance in…
