SUMMARY:Unikernels as a Platform for Confidential Supercomputing?
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\n\nStefan Lankes and Jonathan Klimt (RWTH Aachen
  University)\n\nThe domain of high-performance computing is currently expe
 riencing a paradigm shift known as "convergent computing":\nCloud provider
 s are now able to provide supercomputer-like performance, and HPC centers 
 are improving their utilization with multi-tenancy models, blurring the li
 ne between these domains.\n\nAt the same time, a decades-old idea called U
 nikernels experiences a revival in cloud computing.\nThese library-operati
 ng system images aim to achieve high-performance and low overhead while ma
 intaining high isolation, making them suitable for modern convergent cloud
  systems.\n\nIsolation, however, is not a “silver bullet” for ensuring sec
 urity and integrity.\nOffloading computations to a computation provider re
 quires trust in that party and their infrastructure.\nThat’s what a set of
  technologies called confidential computing aims to solve.\nIn cloud and H
 PC, most implementations of confidential computing are based on virtualiza
 tion. Therefore, combining it with Unikernels appears to be a logical next
  step.\n\nThis presentation will explore how supercomputing can benefit fr
 om confidential computing and Unikernels, discuss the effects of confident
 ial computing technologies on Unikernels, and share our experiences in int
 egrating them into our own Unikernel Hermit.\n\nDomain: Computational Meth
 ods and Applied Mathematics\n\nSession Chairs: Timothy Dykes (HPE) and Tiz
 iano Müller (HPE)
