Dr. Zhaohong Wang’s teaching spans embedded systems, cryptographic applications in computing systems, and computer networks. His research interests lie at the intersection of information forensics and security within embedded systems and computer architecture.

Project/Thesis Supervision

Currently, I am guiding projects focused on secure CPU and distributed computing. I am actively seeking self-motivated students to join my team.

If you are a senior undergraduate or a master (MS)’s student with a strong interest in CPU architecture and its security, as well as a passion for computer systems and a willingness to take on challenges, I encourage you to schedule a discussion about your plan of study.

CPU Architecture for Secure Computation

Participating in this project will equip you with essential skills in cryptography, computer architecture, and networking – capabilities that are highly sought after by employers in the tech industry. This opportunity will not only strengthen your job applications through solid preparation but also pave the way to prestigious graduate schools.

Privacy-Preserving Joint Computation

Working on this project will provide you with exposure to advanced topics in distributed computing. The foundational elements of this project include Linux socket programming (as covered in EECE 446) and cryptographic protocols.
