MS Thesis Defense: A novel simple power analysis (SPA) attack on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) Tianhong Xu Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), as a widely used public-key cryptography, is vulnerable to simple power analysis(SPA) attacks. There are many countermeasures against simple power analysis(SPA) attacks on ECC implementation, the Always-add algorithm is one […]
PhD Dissertation Defense: Physical Layer Security in Multi-User Wireless Networks: Impact of Interference and Artificial Noise on Large-Scale Analysis Seyedmehdi Sadeghzadeh Location: Zoom Link Abstract: In this thesis, we study the physical layer security in downlink multi-user wireless networks. Traditionally, security has been addressed by cryptography at the higher layers of the communication stack. Security […]

JOINT SPECIAL COLLOQUIUM BY COLLEGE OF SCIENCE AND COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING The Weird World of Quantum Matter Professor Prineha Narang, Harvard University Quantum materials host many spectacular functionalities enabled by their unusual excited-state and nonequilibrium quantum effects. Understanding these phenomena that involve a variety of time and length scales has remained elusive. My research focuses […]
MS Thesis Defense: Modulations to Exploit the THz Band Duschia Bodet Location: Zoom Link Abstract: Terahertz (THz)-band (0.1-10 THz) communication has been envisioned as a key technology to enable wireless Terabit-per-second (Tbps) links. At THz frequencies, the path-loss is governed by the spreading loss and the molecular absorption loss. The latter also determines the available […]
