The Next Era in Hardware Security (PDF)

(Dipl.-Ing.) in 2010 and the Ph.D. in Computer Engineering (Dr.-Ing., summa cum laude) in 2014, both from TU Dresden, Germany. He is a Research Scientist at the New York University, Abu Dhabi, UAE. Dr. Knechtel was a Postdoctoral Researcher in 2015-16 at the Masdar Institute of Science and Technology, Abu Dhabi. From 2010 to 2014, he was a Ph.D. Scholar with the DFG Graduate School on "Nano- and Biotechnologies for Packaging of Electronic Systems" hosted at the TU Dresden. In 2012, he was a Research Assistant with the Dept. of Computer Science and Engineering, Chinese University of Hong Kong, China. In 2010, he was a Visiting Research Student with the Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of Michigan, USA. His research interests cover VLSI Physical Design Automation, with particular focus on Emerging Technologies and Hardware Security.







Shaloo Rakheja is an assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign since 2019. Prior to joining UIUC, she was an assistant professor in electrical and computer engineering at New York University. She received her PhD in electrical and computer engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2012. She completed her postdoctoral research under the supervision of Prof. Dimitri Antoniadis at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She has contributed significantly in the area of numerical and analytic modeling of nanoscale electronic and magnetic devices for high-speed and low-power computing applications. More recently, she has been working in the field of wide bandgap and ultrawide bandgap semiconductors that are the backbone of high-power, 5G/6G, and extreme environment electronics.







Ozgur Sinanoglu is a professor of electrical and computer engineering, the director of the Design-for-Excellence Lab, and the PI of the Center for Cybersecurity at New York University Abu Dhabi. He earned his B.S. degrees, one in Electrical and Electronics Engineering and one in Computer Engineering, both from Bogazici University, Turkey in 1999. He obtained his MS and PhD in Computer Science and Engineering from University of California San Diego in 2001 and 2004, respectively. He has industry experience at TI, IBM and Qualcomm, and has been with NYU Abu Dhabi since 2010. During his PhD, he won the IBM PhD fellowship award twice. He is also the recipient of the best paper awards at IEEE VLSI Test Symposium 2011 and ACM Conference on Computer and Communication Security 2013. His research interests include design-for-test, design-for-security and design-for-trust for VLSI circuits, where he has around 200 conference and journal papers, and 20 issued and pending US Patents.
