SUMMARY:Native Client – A Sandbox for Portable\, Untrusted Native Code (C
 hristian Stefansen\, Google)
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT: Native Client is an open-source technology for runnin
 g untrusted native code in web applications\, with the goal of maintaining
  OS portability\, ISA portability\, and safety that people expect from web
  apps. Native Client uses static validation to achieve software fault isol
 ation\; and a specialized runtime to direct all system interaction and sid
 e effects through managed interfaces\, notably PPAPI (Pepper). It supports
  performance-oriented features generally absent from web application progr
 amming environments\, such as thread support\, instruction set extensions 
 such as SSE\, and use of hand-coded assembler.\nWe combine these propertie
 s in an open architecture designed to leverage existing web standards\, an
 d to encourage community review and 3rd-party tools. This talk will cover 
 system desing\, in particular the memory sandbox and the static validator\
 , and touch upon recent efforts including JIT support and ISA portability 
 (the Portable Native Client project).  For more information and resources
  see http://code.google.com/p/nativeclient\nABOUT THE SPEAKER:  Christian
  Stefansen works on the Native Client project at Google in Mountain View\,
  CA. Prior to joining Google\, he was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Uni
 versity of Copenhagen\, conducting research on Reactors\, a declarative pr
 ogramming model for distributed computing\, and on using process calculi\,
  in particular CSP and Pi calculus\, to express financial contracts. Chris
 tian Stefansen received his M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of
  Copenhagen. In 2004-05 he was a Fulbright Scholar at Harvard University. 
 He also holds a degree in Business Administration from Copenhagen Business
  School.
