Ask HN: What are the best scholarly papers you read in 2017?
An AskHN question about best book made me aware I've read many more papers than books lately. (I mean scholarly/academic articles, not newspapers!)
Any field is great, name a few if 1 is too hard to pick. And maybe omit the ones you have to be a specialist in your exact field to understand a word of. Thanks!
- godelmachine 9y agoI got introduced to side channel attacks 2 years ago, but only recently had the time to read up on RowHammer attacks. In particular, I was quite taken by the research on Clementine Maurice. Won't paste any links here but a quick Google search on her would lead to a treasure trove of her works.
- borplk 9y agoSteve Gibson has done some podcasts about RowHammer stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axYkahXb1gs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axYkahXb1gs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PapZsPLGlo4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PapZsPLGlo4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wGR_LPh42k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wGR_LPh42k
- yesenadam 9y agoThank you! I watched some of one of her videos, fascinating. I noticed she's spoken at BlackHat conferences.. Isn't that exactly the kind of people her work is supposed to be protecting against? hehe That seemed weird.
- kamphey 9y agoDoes the Ethereum White Paper count?
- yesenadam 9y agoSure. :-) Not sure why it wouldn't, looks interesting thanks. Unless you thought I had probably heard more than enough about BTC already?! I didn't really know what 'white paper' meant. "White papers may be considered grey literature."[0] Aah. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_paper https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_paper
- bovermyer 9y agoThe Google Dapper paper was a good read, but it's from 2010, so I'm not sure if it counts.
