07-16-2008 Seminar

Are you still able to remember all the elements of speculative execution, which you've learned in an architecture class way back in your college? Do you know there is a close relationship between this performance enhancement technique and an effective security insurance mechanism, such that we can shoot two birds with one stone?

If you feel a little bit confused, we are gathering in the default time, default room on Wednesday to dissolve your confusion. Yan is going to introduce an efficient dynamic taint analysis implementation that leverage hardware speculation support. The paper can be obtained from here.

As always, free lunch will be offered. Many thanks to Jeff for bringing the Indian food from Milan.
