Description:
The reading group aims at understanding the recent research results in the field of computer and network security and stimulating an exchange of new ideas. The papers will be selected from top conferences and journals in the field of security, operating system, embedded system, distributed system, hardware, network, including but not limited to: CCS, SSP, Security, SOSP/OSDI, HotOS, SigComm, MobiCom, SenSys, ISCA, MICRO, etc. Each participant needs to read the paper before the meeting. In each meeting, one student will make a presentation (30-40 minute) and lead the discussion of one paper.
