595G: Hacking Club Seminar

This seminar covers various topics related to vulnerability analysis and hacking. A deep understanding of the details of both the vulnerabilities that make security compromises possible and the countermeasures that are required to detect and block the attacks is a necessary prerequisite to address the ever-changing set of security issues that affect applications, operating systems, and networks. The seminar has a practical emphasis, and it is geared towards learning new tools and techniques in a group setting.

CMPSC 595E: Seminar in Hardware Description Languages for Novel Architectures

Hardware description languages are key tools in turning architectural ideas into real chips. With the focus on agile and open source hardware design to solve post-Moore's Law problems, novel hardware description languages take on a renewed position of importance in advancing computer processor design. This seminar will explore the novel, and sometimes bizarre, languages attempting to disrupt the hardware design ecosystem over the last few decades. Students will be expected to read, learn, and present on these languages.
