Thesis (Bachelor/Master) Confidential Computing for Edge Platforms

<![[<div><h1>Aufgaben:</h1>We are seeking a motivated Master's or Bachelor's student to conduct research on the intersection of confidential computing, real-time systems, and edge computing. This thesis project will focus on evaluating and optimizing the performance of confidential workloads running on edge platforms, with particular emphasis on Intel Trust Domain Extensions (TDX) technology and containerized environments.
You collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary research team focused on edge and distributed computing as well as cybersecurity, immersing yourself in an innovative environment
Building on this, you evaluate the real-time capabilities of confidential workloads on edge platforms by systematically measuring latency and jitter
Subsequently, you benchmark Intel TDX trusted execution environments both with micro-benchmarks and full software stacks to assess the performance impact of migrating confidential workloads
