The Trustworthy Networked Systems Laboratory (TNS Lab) is part of the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at University of Seoul in Korea. We investigate hardware–software co-design to build programmable, high-performance networked systems. In parallel, we analyze and evaluate the security of existing systems to identify vulnerabilities and strengthen their resilience, aiming to create reliable and trustworthy computing platforms. At present, our work focuses on cloud infrastructures, where we design and implement performant and trustworthy networked systems to support emerging AI workloads.
We welcome motivated students with a passion for these topics to join us. Please send an email with your most recent CV.
