Date: Friday, September 25, 2026, 12:00 – 1:00 p.m. Location: Simrall 104 WebEx: https://msstate.webex.com/msstate/j.php?MTID=mfd494b8947641faddbb1565a32720052 Abstract: This presentation introduces a novel paradigm in radio astronomy that harnesses the global network of Internet of Things (IoT) devices to construct a distributed radio telescope. The envisioned system transforms billions of geographically dispersed IoT nodes, such as smartphones, into…
MSU Bagley College of Engineering continues national impact with faculty NSF CAREER Awards
ECE Research Seminar with Dr. Tianyou Bao: September 4, 11 a.m.-12 p.m.
Date: Friday, September 4, 2026, 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. Location: Simrall 104 WebEx: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/22872498734365?p=8uGCeJsHsIcmzNArme Abstract: The emergence of quantum computers poses a critical threat to conventional cryptographic systems such as RSA and elliptic curve cryptography. Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) offers quantum-resistant security, while fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) enables computation on encrypted data without decryption. However,…
ECE Research Seminar with Dr. Lina Pu: August 28, 12-1 p.m.
Flyer Date: Friday, August 28, 2026, 12:00 – 1:00 pm Location: Simrall 104 WebEx: https://msstate.webex.com/msstate/j.php?MTID=m6b435e06a9fcacbaf346ce125e5905d8 Abstract: Physical-layer side channels have a long history: unintended electromagnetic emanations from cables, displays, and keyboards can betray data that cryptography was supposed to protect. However, passive EM attacks are limited by whatever leakage the victim happens to radiate. This…
