When the time comes to make a critical decision, it is of paramount importance to prepare enough so that all the information necessary is available at decision time. Under-preparation leads to uninformed decisions; over-preparation, however, may lead to co ...
Analyzing the security of closed source binaries is currently impractical for end-users, or even developers who rely on third-party libraries. Such analysis relies on automatic vulnerability discovery techniques, most notably fuzzing with sanitizers enable ...
Domain-specific languages (DSLs) play an increasingly important role in the generation of high performing software. They allow the user to exploit domain knowledge for the generation of more efficient code on target architectures. Here, we describe a new c ...
Fully-Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) offers powerful capabilities by enabling secure offloading of both storage and computation, and recent innovations in schemes and implementations have made it all the more attractive. At the same time, FHE is notoriously ...
A central task in high-level synthesis is scheduling: the allocation of operations to clock cycles. The classic approach to scheduling is static, in which each operation is mapped to a clock cycle at compile-time, but recent years have seen the emergence o ...
Software engineering practices have been steadily moving towards higher-level programming languages and away from lower-level ones. High-level languages tend to greatly improve safety, productivity, and code maintainability because they handle various impl ...
Practical realizations of quantum computers are poised to deliver outstanding computational capabilities far beyond the reach of any classical supercomputer.
While classical systems are reliably implemented using CMOS technology, the fabrication of quantu ...
Neural networks have become indispensable for a wide range of applications, but they suffer from high computational- and memory-requirements, requiring optimizations from the algorithmic description of the network to the hardware implementation. Moreover, ...
