Preventing Use-After-Free Attacks with Fast Forward Allocation

Memory-unsafe languages are widely used to implement critical systems like kernels and browsers, leading to thousands of memory safety issues every year. A use-after-free bug is a temporal memory error where the program accidentally visits a freed memory l ...

Every data structure deserves lock-free memory reclamation

Nachshon Cohen

Memory-management support for lock-free data structures is well known to be a tough problem. Recent work has successfully reduced the overhead of such schemes. However, applying memory-management support to a data structure remains complex and, in many cas ...

Log-Free Concurrent Data Structures

Rachid Guerraoui, Aleksandar Dragojevic, Mihail Igor Zablotchi, Tudor Alexandru David

Non-volatile RAM (NVRAM) makes it possible for data structures to tolerate transient failures, assuming however that programmers have designed these structures such that their consistency is preserved upon recovery. Previous ap- proaches are typically tran ...

Fusion of Multi-Atlas Segmentations with Spatial Distribution Modeling

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Subrahmanyam Venkata Ravi Mohana Sai Gorthi

In recent years, multi-atlas fusion methods have gained significant attention in medical image segmentation. In this paper, we propose a general Markov Random Field (MRF) based framework that can perform edge-preserving smoothing of the labels at the time ...
