A program usually accepts input, performs operations on the input, and produces output. Incorrect processing of input can lead to security vulnerabilities, such as buffer overflow. Depending on the input, the program may not perform the desired operation. An attacker can craft a specialized input that exploits the vulnerability to …

It is quite difficult for users to select VM configurations to optimize the performance of their applications, especially if there are a lot of choices. For example, if I want to run computational chemistry app, I need to make a decision whether to use a VM with 1 VCPU and …

Most processors nowadays are multi-core processors to take advantage of parallel processing. Associated with parallel processing is the synchronization problem wherein locks are extensively used. This paper [GUERRAOUI2019] argues that despite the large amount of available choices for lock algorithms, developers do not have a comprehensive guide to select an …

This paper [DUNKELS2005] describes the design and implementation of Contiki. The paper describes the characteristics of sensor networks and its special requirements. These special requirements were considered in Contiki's design. For example, nodes in sensor networks are tiny and limited in processing power and memory. Thus, Contiki should be able …
