1. Exposing memory accesses and branches in machine code to symbolic execution : Tracking instructions through binary raising
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Programvara och systemAbstract : In 2018, a new security vulnerability was discovered that existed in billions of processors from different manufacturers, using various architectures. A so-called spectre attack can be launched to exploit the vulnerability and cause cryptographic information to leak through side-channels of the targeted system. READ MORE

2. Clueless: A Tool Characterising Values Leaking as Addresses : Clueless: A Tool Characterising Values Leaking as Addresses
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : A fundamental programming feature that allows Spectre to effortlessly leak the value of secrets via cache side channels is the transformation of data values into addresses. Consider forexample sorting, hashing, or many other algorithms that create addresses based on datavalues. READ MORE

3. Automated checking of programming assignments using static analysis
University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknikAbstract : Computer science and software engineering education usually contain programming courses that require writing code that is graded. These assignments are corrected through manual code review by teachers or course assistants. The large amount of assignments motivates us to find ways to automatically correct certain parts of the assignments. READ MORE

4. Growth and Characterization of Ferroelectric Lanthanum-Doped Hafnia
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : Hafnia-based ferroelectrics show great promise as future nonvolatile memory devices, however, their issues regarding device inconsistency across their lifetime, coupled with the relatively short total lifetime, makes these devices only theoretical as of now. In this thesis, an ALD deposition recipe for lanthanum oxide deposition was created. READ MORE

5. Efficient Cache Randomization for Security
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : The effectiveness of cache hierarchies, undeniably, is of crucial importance, since they essentially constitute the solution to the disparity between fast processors and high memory latency. Nevertheless, security developments spanning for more than the last decade, critically expose cache hierarchies' vulnerabilities, thus creating a need for counter-measures to take place. READ MORE
