    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dynamic; lazy evaluation; LIO; Haskell; information-flow control; cache; covert channels; covert timing channels; concurrency;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis focusses on dealing with timingcovert channels in dynamic information-flow control systems,particularly for the LIO library in Haskell.Timing channels are dangerous in the presence ofconcurrency. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Secure System Virtualization : End-to-End Verification of Memory Isolation

    Författare :Hamed Nemati; Mads Dam; Gustavo Betarte; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Platform Security; Hypervisor; Formal Verification; Theorem Proving; HOL4; Cache attack; Security Monitor; Information Flow; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Sammanfattning : Over the last years, security-kernels have played a promising role in reshaping the landscape of platform security on embedded devices. Security-kernels, such as separation kernels, enable constructing high-assurance mixed-criticality execution platforms on a small TCB, which enforces isolation between components. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Adaptive Microarchitectural Optimizations to Improve Performance and Security of Multi-Core Architectures

    Författare :Nadja Holtryd; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multi-Core Architectures; Bandwidth Partitioning; Prefetch Throttling; Cache Partitioning; Microarchitectural Optimizations; Side-channel Attacks;

    Sammanfattning : With the current technological barriers, microarchitectural optimizations are increasingly important to ensure performance scalability of computing systems. The shift to multi-core architectures increases the demands on the memory system, and amplifies the role of microarchitectural optimizations in performance improvement. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Securing functional programs with floating-label information-flow control

    Författare :Pablo Buiras; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; covert timing channels; LIO; concurrency; type-level programming; floating-label; Haskell; internal timing; dynamic enforcement; DC labels; dynamic policies; lazy evaluation; information-flow control; cache-based attacks; language-based security; hybrid enforcement; flow-sensitivity; functional programming; privileges;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis focuses on information-flow control systems for functional programs, particularly on the LIO library in Haskell. The thesis considers threemain aspects in this area: timing covert channels, dynamic policies andenforcement mechanisms that improve precision of the analysis. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Efficient Execution Paradigms for Parallel Heterogeneous Architectures

    Författare :Konstantinos Koukos; Stefanos Kaxiras; Margaret Martonosi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Decoupled Execution; Performance; Energy; DVFS; Compiler Optimizations; Heterogeneous Coherence; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis proposes novel, efficient execution-paradigms for parallel heterogeneous architectures. The end of Dennard scaling is threatening the effectiveness of DVFS in future nodes; therefore, new execution paradigms are required to exploit the non-linear relationship between performance and energy efficiency of memory-bound application-regions.
