Purpose
The purpose of the Security Architecture Reading Group (SARG) is to
facilitate discussion on the topic of computer security as it relates
to computer architecture. To design a secure computing platform one
must consider not only its system and software design, but also its
hardware design and the cryptographic foundation it is built upon.
SARG tries to bring together researchers from different disciplines in
computer science to evaluate previous proposals and think through
emerging issues in secure computing.
Logistics
SARG meets every week to discuss a paper. We meet on
Mondays at 3:30pm in EBU3B
3109.
