IRES:U.S.-Sweden Research Experience in Efficient and Secure Mobile Systems for Students

从智能手机、GPS导航仪、娱乐设备到汽车、火车和飞机中嵌入的许多子系统，移动计算越来越多地渗透到我们的生活中。这些平台的功能和安全需求带来了独特的挑战。这项国际学生研究经验（IRES）项目将使首席研究员和佛罗里达州立大学（FSU）的学生和教师能够访问查尔姆斯理工大学（CTH），对高效和安全的移动系统进行计算机研究。在这个项目的三年里，15名美国研究生（每5人一组）将在每年夏天访问瑞典哥德堡的CTH，为期10周。在此期间，美国学生将与CTH的教师和学生在联合项目上密切合作。FSU和CTH研究人员的专业知识相结合，使这个团队具有独特的资格，为IRES学生参与者提供有益和富有成效的研究经验，不仅在他们出国期间，而且在更广泛的背景下，正在进行的国际教师合作，他们的夏季项目做出贡献。能源和安全已经成为移动计算设备的关键设计限制，这个IRES项目的智力价值在于合作开发解决这些限制的新方法。美国-瑞典的IRES将通过侧重于设计和分析组合编译器、体系结构和硬件技术的项目来实现这一目标，以使移动计算机处理器更加节能。此外，目标还包括通过开发在整个系统中跟踪密钥副本的新方法，为将来支持安全文件删除做出贡献。预计会对技术和社会产生更广泛的影响。如果成功，结果可能会导致未来的技术，创造更有效和安全的系统，以支持无处不在的计算，继续渗透到我们的日常生活中。参加FSU的学生不仅会增加他们的研究知识；他们还将更加参与全球事务，并为在多样化和不断扩大的国际计算机和信息科学研究环境中工作做好更好的准备。作为回报，CTH的合作伙伴打算派遣瑞典学生到FSU进行类似的、精心策划的合作研究访问。总的来说，这种平衡的方法有望通过为没有机会作为IRES参与者访问瑞典的美国学生提供宝贵的国际文化和研究经验，加强和扩展FSU学生早期职业生涯的国际研究经验。

Mobile computing increasingly pervades our lives in forms ranging from smartphones, GPS navigators, and entertainment devices to the many subsystems embedded in our automobiles, trains, and airplanes. The power and security requirements for these platforms present unique challenges. This International Research Experience for Students (IRES) project will enable the Principal Investigator and Florida State University (FSU)students and faculty to visit Chalmers University of Technology (CTH) to conduct computer research on efficient and secure mobile systems. Over the three years of this project, 15 U.S. graduate students (in cohorts of five) will visit CTH, in Gothenburg, Sweden, for a period of 10 weeks each summer. While in residence, the U.S. students will work closely with CTH faculty and students on joint projects. The combined expertise of the FSU and CTH researchers uniquely qualifies this team to provide IRES student participants with a rewarding and productive research experience, not only during their time abroad, but in the context of the broader, ongoing international faculty collaborations to which their summer projects contribute.Energy and security have become key design constraints for mobile computing devices, and the intellectual merit of this IRES project lies in the cooperative efforts to develop novel approaches to addressing these constraints. The US-Swedish IRES will do this in part through projects that focus on the design and analysis of combined compiler, architecture, and hardware techniques for making mobile computer processors more energy efficient. Furthermore, the objectives include contributing to future support of secure file deletion by developing new methods to track copies of keys throughout a system. Both technical and societal broader impacts are expected. If successful, results may lead to future technology that creates more efficient and secure systems to support ubiquitous computing which continues to pervade our daily lives. Not only will participating FSU students increase their research knowledge; they also will become more globally engaged and better prepared to work in a diverse and expanding international computer and information science research environment. Reciprocally, the CTH partners intend to send Swedish students to FSU for similar, well-planned cooperative research visits. Overall, this balanced approach is expected to reinforce and extend the early career international research experience for FSU students by providing a valuable international cultural and research experience to U.S. students who do not have the opportunity to visit Sweden as IRES participants.
