SecureCells: A Secure Compartmentalized Architecture

Babak Falsafi, Mathias Josef Payer, Siddharth Gupta, Atri Bhattacharyya, Yuanlong Li, Florian Hofhammer, Andrés Sánchez Marín

Modern programs are monolithic, combining code of varied provenance without isolation, all the while running on network-connected devices. A vulnerability in any component may compromise code and data of all other components. Compartmentalization separates ...

Creating Trust by Abolishing Hierarchies

Mathias Josef Payer, Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias, Adrien Ghosn, Charly Nicolas Lucien Castes, Yuchen Qian, Neelu Shivprakash Kalani

Software is going through a trust crisis. Privileged code is no longer trusted and processes insufficiently protect user code from unverified libraries. While usually treated separately, confidential computing and program compartmentalization are both symp ...

SoK: Shining Light on Shadow Stacks

Mathias Josef Payer

Control-Flow Hijacking attacks are the dominant attack vector against C/C++ programs. Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) solutions mitigate these attacks on the forward edge, i.e., indirect calls through function pointers and virtual calls. Protecting the backwa ...

Truly abstract interfaces for algebraic data types: the extractor typing problem

Martin Odersky, Nicolas Alexander Stucki, Paolo Giosuè Giarrusso

Pattern matching enables inspecting algebraic data types, but typically prevents hiding the implementation of the matched algebraic data type. In Scala, instead, extractors also allow pattern matching on non-algebraic data types and invoking methods on the ...

Safety, Liveness and Parallelism in Concurrent Computing

Victor Bushkov

The correctness of a shared object, which can be accessed by several processes concurrently, is specified through two different kinds of properties - safety and liveness. When implementing a shared object it is important to specify its correctness in a suc ...

Late Data Layout: Unifying Data Representation Transformations

Martin Odersky, Eugene Burmako, Vlad Ureche

Values need to be represented differently when interacting with certain language features. For example, an integer has to take an object-based representation when interacting with erased generics, although, for performance reasons, the stack-based value re ...

Le strategie del rivestimento nell'architettura olandese contemporanea : Neutelings Riedijk Architecten, UNstudio, Wiel Arets

Giampiero Sanguigni

The thesis wants to analyze "the strategies of wrapping in Dutch contemporary architecture" and wants to re-define, in a systematic way, some aspects that have not been investigated by those publications and authors that, since the beginning of the '90s un ...
