The realization of a control unit can be done using a complex circuitry or microprogramming. The latter may be considered as an alternative method of implementation of machine ins...
Simultaneous MultiThreading (SMT) achieves better system resource utilization and higher performance because it exploits ThreadLevel Parallelism (TLP) in addition to “conventiona...
We describe Instruction-Set Randomization (ISR), a general approach for safeguarding systems against any type of code-injection attack. We apply Kerckhoffs' principle to creat...
