About Me

My Profile Image
Hi! I am a Ph.D. candidate at Seoul National University (SNU), advised by Professor Jung Ho Ahn. Before I joined the SCALE laboratory for my Ph.D., I completed my BSE in Electrical and Computer Engineering at SNU.

My research focus is on computer architecture, memory system/management, and system reliability and security. Recently, I have been focusing on memory system security, particularly related to the DRAM devices (e.g., read disturbance errors such as rowhammer/rowpress and covert-/side-channels) and reverse-engineering the operations of commercial processors’ memory controllers. Also, I’m interested in enhancing system reliability against silient data corruptions (SDCs).
