Statement of Research Interests:

The goal of Dr.  Prvulovic's research is to make fundamental contributions to computer architecture, and its interdisciplinary nature also involves significant contributions in the areas of security and software engineering. His recent work involves mechanisms to non-intrusively monitor software execution using electromagnetic emanations from the monitored system, and also to identify unwanted or modified hardware components.

Statement of Teaching Interests:

Dr.. Prvulovic teaches both undergraduate and graduate classes in computer architecture. His teaching approach is to use practical examples and programming assignments to help students understand the fundamental concepts that will be relevant long after the current tools and techniques are replaced with new ones.
