Master Thesis: Security and Performance Aspects of Using WebAssembly (WASM) in Embedded Systems

Join our Team About this opportunity: WebAssembly (WASM) is an emerging portable binary instruction format designed for safe, efficient, and fast execution across heterogeneous computing platforms. Initially created for web browsers, WASM has expanded beyond its origins to support non-web environments such as serverless computing, Internet of Things (IoT), and embedded systems. Embedded systems are increasingly required to run complex, modular applications that demand both high performance and robust security guarantees. Traditionally, such systems rely on native binaries compiled for specific architectures, which often leads to platform fragmentation, security vulnerabilities due to unsafe code execution, and limited portability.…
