Embedded, smart, and IoT devices are increasingly popular in numerous everyday settings. Since lower-end devices have the most strict cost constraints, they tend to have few, if any, security features. This makes them attractive targets for…

Recently, a number of existing blockchain systems have witnessed major bugs and vulnerabilities within smart contracts. Although the literature features a number of proposals for securing smart contracts, these proposals mostly focus on…

The performance of today's in-memory indexes is bottlenecked by the memory latency/bandwidth wall. Processing-in-memory (PIM) is an emerging approach that potentially mitigates this bottleneck, by enabling low-latency memory access whose…

DNNs and LLMs increasingly rely on hardware accelerators, including in safety-critical domains, while technology scaling and growing model complexity make hardware faults more frequent. Existing system-level mechanisms typically treat the…

Extended Asynchronous DRAM Refresh (eADR) proposed by Intel extends the persistence domain from the Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) to CPU caches and offers the persistence guarantee. Due to allowing lazy persistence and decreasing the amounts of…

Recent technological advancements have enabled proliferated use of small embedded and IoT devices for collecting, processing, and transferring the security-critical information and user data. This exponential use has acted as a catalyst in…

Efficient and secure revocable attribute-based encryption (RABE) is vital for ensuring flexible and fine-grained access control and data sharing in cloud storage and outsourced data environments within the Internet of Things (IoT). However,…

The security goals of cloud providers and users include memory confidentiality and integrity, which requires implementing Replay-Attack protection (RAP). RAP can be achieved using integrity trees or mutually authenticated channels.…

Residual connections are central to modern deep neural networks, enabling stable optimization and efficient information flow across depth. In this work, we propose SCORE (Skip-Connection ODE Recurrent Embedding), a discrete recurrent…

The task of accumulating a portion of a list of values, whose values may be updated at any time, is widely used throughout various applications in computer science. While it is trivial to accomplish this task without any constraints,…

Algorithms that use hardware transactional memory (HTM) must provide a software-only fallback path to guarantee progress. The design of the fallback path can have a profound impact on performance. If the fallback path is allowed to run…

In the age of big data, information security has become a major issue of debate, especially with the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), where attackers can effortlessly obtain physical access to edge devices. The hash algorithm is the…

Synchronous Mirroring (SM) is a standard approach to building highly-available and fault-tolerant enterprise storage systems. SM ensures strong data consistency by maintaining multiple exact data replicas and synchronously propagating every…

The advent of non-volatile main memory (NVM) enables the development of crash-consistent software without paying storage stack overhead. However, building a correct crash-consistent program remains very challenging in the presence of a…

Tree-based speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive generation by verifying a branching tree of draft tokens in a single target-model forward pass. However, existing methods prioritize maximizing token-level likelihood or the number…

The rapid advancements in AI, scientific computing, and high-performance computing (HPC) have driven the need for versatile and efficient hardware accelerators. Existing tools like SCALE-Sim v2 provide valuable cycle-accurate simulations…

A key-value cache is a key component of many services to provide low-latency and high-throughput data accesses to a huge amount of data. To improve the end-to-end performance of such services, a key-value cache must achieve a high cache hit…

We address the problem of scaling authentication for naming, routing, and end-entity certification to a global environment in which authentication policies and users' sets of trust roots vary widely. The current mechanisms for…

Guaranteeing runtime integrity of embedded system software is an open problem. Trade-offs between security and other priorities (e.g., cost or performance) are inherent, and resolving them is both challenging and important. The…

This paper presents a system combining symbolic execution (KLEE) with a 4-agent multi-LLM architecture for detecting memory vulnerabilities in Rust unsafe code. A central challenge we address is the incomplete-code problem: CVE database…
