2024 International Symposium on Secure and Private Execution Environment Design (SEED)

The International Symposium on Secure and Private Execution Environment Design (SEED) is a forum which brings together researchers from the computer architecture and computer security communities into one venue that focuses on the design of architectural and system primitives which provide secure and private execution environments for applications, containers, or virtual machines.

SEED primarily focuses on research topics spanning across the boundaries of computer architecture, systems, and security. Papers are solicited on a range of topics, including (but not limited to):
Architecture, operating systems, and programming models and language for supporting secure and private execution
Novel Designs for secure and private execution environments for GPUs, accelerators, and FPGAs
Architectural support for new security primitives
Novel cryptographic hardware designs for secure and private execution
Models and analysis of performance-security trade-offs in the design of a secure execution environment
Evaluation of security vulnerabilities in post-Moore’s Law technologies, e.g. persistent memory, quantum computing
Demonstration and mitigation of architectural side channels, covert channels and other security vulnerabilities
Metrics for measuring architecture-related security vulnerabilities
Compiler and code generation techniques for mitigating architecture-induced side and covert channels and other vulnerabilities
