Abstract :
The SPARCHS project is considering a new computer systems design methodology that considers security as a first-order design requirement at all levels, starting from hardware, in addition to the usual design requirements such as programmability, usability, speed, and power/energy- efficiency. The rest of the paper describes the proposed hardware security mechanisms and the current status of the project.
