    SOUTHERN MAINE COMMUNITY COLLEGE 2017-2018 SMCC FACTBOOK Published August 2018 pg. 48 SMCC FACTBOOK History of SMCC A Brief History of SMCC Southern Maine Community College (SMCC) has grown and evolved over the years. Our mission today is to transform lives and communities through education and training, and welcome, prepare and inspire all to learn, succeed and lead. Our role is as vital today as it was in 1946, when the College first opened under the name Maine Vocational Technical Institute (MVTI), a day school in Augusta created to serve returning World War II veterans who needed to learn new skills in a post-war economy. By 1952 MVTI and its 156 students had outgrown their space in Augusta and moved to the site of decommissioned Fort Preble, overlooking beautiful Casco Bay in South Portland. During the 1960s the name was changed to Southern Maine Vocational Technical Institute (SMVTI) and authorization was received to award Associate in Applied Science degrees. In the late 1980s, the Maine Legislature changed the name of the state’s Vocational Technical Institute System to the Maine Technical College System, and SMVTI became Southern Maine Technical College (SMTC). Almost a decade later, in 1998, the College added an Associate in Arts degree in liberal studies to its offerings, a significant step in its evolution to a comprehensive community college. In 2003 that transformation was complete. Gov. John Baldacci introduced legislation establishing the Maine Community College System – a move that enjoyed strong bipartisan support in the 121st Maine Legislature. The College name was changed once more, this time to Southern Maine Community College.

  • CHERI Concentrate: Practical Compressed Capabilities
    1 CHERI Concentrate: Practical Compressed Capabilities Jonathan Woodruff, Alexandre Joannou, Hongyan Xia, Anthony Fox, Robert Norton, Thomas Bauereiss, David Chisnall, Brooks Davis, Khilan Gudka, Nathaniel W. Filardo, A. Theodore Markettos, Michael Roe, Peter G. Neumann, Robert N. M. Watson, Simon W. Moore Abstract—We present CHERI Concentrate, a new fat-pointer compression scheme applied to CHERI, the most developed capability-pointer system at present. Capability fat pointers are a primary candidate to enforce fine-grained and non-bypassable security properties in future computer systems, although increased pointer size can severely affect performance. Thus, several proposals for capability compression have been suggested elsewhere that do not support legacy instruction sets, ignore features critical to the existing software base, and also introduce design inefficiencies to RISC-style processor pipelines. CHERI Concentrate improves on the state-of-the-art region-encoding efficiency, solves important pipeline problems, and eases semantic restrictions of compressed encoding, allowing it to protect a full legacy software stack. We present the first quantitative analysis of compiled capability code, which we use to guide the design of the encoding format. We analyze and extend logic from the open-source CHERI prototype processor design on FPGA to demonstrate encoding efficiency, minimize delay of pointer arithmetic, and eliminate additional load-to-use delay. To verify correctness of our proposed high-performance logic, we present a HOL4 machine-checked proof of the decode and pointer-modify operations. Finally, we measure a 50% to 75% reduction in L2 misses for many compiled C-language benchmarks running under a commodity operating system using compressed 128-bit and 64-bit formats, demonstrating both compatibility with and increased performance over the uncompressed, 256-bit format.

In yet another abortive attempt to settle the location of a new Casco Bay Terminal, the Portland Planning Board failed to act on a choice of Hobson's Wharf (at the foot of High St.); or the combined Custom House - Portland Pier site. Unanimous rejection of Hobson's Wharf was voiced by island residents, supplemented by peti­ tions signed by many who could not attend the August 7 public hearing. Custom House was favored more as the lesser of two evils, than an ideal solution in itself. Underlying the testimony was a repeated sug­ gestion that the City look again at the Easterly side of Long Wharf which might be negotiated with owner Tony DeMillo - who, it is understood, ,-1 ,-1 - might be willing to move his Marina to the westerly m side in a more protected area.

  • Antikernel: a Decentralized Secure Hardware-Software Operating System Architecture
    Antikernel: A Decentralized Secure Hardware-Software Operating System Architecture Andrew Zonenberg1 and B¨ulent Yener2 1 IOActive Inc., Seattle WA 98105, USA, [email protected] 2 Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy NY 12180, USA, [email protected] Abstract. The \kernel" model has been part of operating system ar- chitecture for decades, but upon closer inspection it clearly violates the principle of least required privilege. The kernel is a single entity which provides many services (memory management, interfacing to drivers, context switching, IPC) having no real relation to each other, and has the ability to observe or tamper with all state of the system. This work presents Antikernel, a novel operating system architecture consisting of both hardware and software components and designed to be fundamen- tally more secure than the state of the art. To make formal verification easier, and improve parallelism, the Antikernel system is highly modular and consists of many independent hardware state machines (one or more of which may be a general-purpose CPU running application or systems software) connected by a packet-switched network-on-chip (NoC). We create and verify an FPGA-based prototype of the system. Keywords: network on chip · system on chip · security · operating sys- tems · hardware accelerators 1 Introduction The Antikernel architecture is intended to be more, yet less, than simply a \ker- nel in hardware". By breaking up functionality and decentralizing as much as possible we aim to create a platform that allows applications to pick and choose the OS features they wish to use, thus reducing their attack surface dramati- cally compared to a conventional OS (and potentially experiencing significant performance gains, as in an exokernel).3 Antikernel is a decentralized architecture with no system calls; all OS func- tionality is accessed through message passing directly to the relevant service.
