Important Update: Due to the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 IEEE International Symposium on Workload Characterization and SECRISC-V 2021 workshop will be virtual events (November 7 - November 9, 2021).

Second International Workshop on Secure RISC-V (SECRISC-V) Architecture Design Exploration
seeks original research papers on the design, implementation, verification, and evaluation of micro-architecture security features, hardware-assisted security techniques, and secure executions around the RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA).
