Edge Computing & Trusted Execution

Jan 1, 2024 · 1 min read

This research area investigates how to bring secure, verifiable computation to resource-constrained edge devices:

  • Trusted Inference at the Edge — Combining smart contracts with trusted execution environments for verifiable edge inference (IEEE ICBC 2024).
  • Blockchain + TEE — Lessons learned from applying TEEs in blockchain applications, with implications for future secure systems.
  • Supporting Heterogeneous Infrastructure — Protecting critical infrastructure across diverse computing environments (AsiaCCS 2023).
  • AI-Based Personalized Interventions — Deploying AI models for health applications on edge devices (SynBio 2025).

This work bridges the gap between the security guarantees of centralized systems and the autonomy of decentralized, edge-deployed applications.
