RESEARCH INTERESTS

My research interests lie in the general area of computer architecture with particular emphasis on:
  • Secure architecture design
  • Hardware and embedded systems security
  • Neural network acceleration and security
  • Network-on-chip (NoC) routing
  • Self-aware polymorphic architecture design
  • Large-scale, hard real-time, secure, distributed computer systems architecture
