A computer architecture lab that researches how to make computers more secure and more energy-efficient.
AboutAbout the lab
Making computer systems better
The Sasaki Lab (CARAS Lab) conducts research to improve the security, power efficiency, and reliability of computer systems.
Centered on computer architecture, the lab takes a broad view that extends from system software, such as operating systems, to applications.
Rather than chasing trends, the lab wants to carry out highly original research that will continue to be read for a long time.
The lab has no core hours, and meetings are held one-on-one with a faculty member as a rule.
Key terms
- Computer architecture
- The basic design of a computer. It determines how processing units and memory are combined and how they operate.
- System software
- Software that forms the foundation for running a computer, such as operating systems and compilers.
- Graph analytics
- Examining relationships and characteristics in data (a graph) that represents connections between people or things as nodes and edges.
