1. Speculative Interference: A Modern Spectre Attack
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : Since the Spectre family of attacks were made public knowledge in January of 2018, researchers, manufacturers and interested individuals have experimented a lot with creating defences against it. But there have also been a lot of research aimed at circumventing these defences and finding alternative side-channels and mechanisms for performing Spectre-type attacks. READ MORE

3. Investigating the Scalability of Direct-to-Master Caches
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : Upcoming processors will utilize an ever increasing number of transistors bye mploying them as multiple cores. With the growth in number of cores, current cache hierarchies become one of the limiting factors for the scalability of applications utilizing multi-core processors. READ MORE

4. Evaluating Gem5 and QEMU Virtual Platforms for ARM Multicore Architectures
University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)Abstract : Accurate virtual platforms allow for crucial, early, and inexpensive assessments about the viability and hardware constraints of software/hardware applications. The growth of multicore architectures in both number of cores and relevance in the industry, in turn, demands the emergence of faster and more efficient virtual platforms to make the benefits of single core simulation and emulation available to their multicore successors whilst maintaining accuracy, development costs, time, and efficiency at acceptable levels.

5. Putting Hard Real-time Applications together with Dark Silicon
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologiAbstract : As the number of transistors per unit square on silicon chips continues to in- crease, the heat production of these chips also increases, making thermal problems more common. As the heat production is dependent on the clock frequency, chips today have a defined thermal safe speed at which the cooling system is sufficient to compensate for the produced heat. READ MORE
