Simon Moore is a Professor of Computer Engineering at the University of Cambridge, leading the Computer Architecture research group. His research primarily focuses on secure processors within the CHERI project, which encompasses both hardware with RISC-V cores that incorporate CHERI security extensions and a complete software stack, including a compiler, linker, and full operating system. The CHERI project aims to enhance full-stack security, and its key components have undergone formal verification. Simon has significant experience in mentoring Ph.D. students, having supervised 25 candidates, including Dr. Daniel Greenfield, who won the UK Distinguished Dissertation prize in Computer Science for his work on 'Communication Locality Computation: Software, Chip Multiprocessors Brains'. Simon is also actively seeking new Ph.D. students to join his research team. He serves as a Fellow and Director of Studies at Trinity Hall, a college affiliated with the University of Cambridge, where he mentors undergraduates in Computer Science.
