ALCHEMY - A Language and Compiler for Homomorphic Encryption Made Easy

This course aims to teach learners how to use ALCHEMY, a system that simplifies and speeds up the use of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE). By the end of the course, students will be able to understand traditional encryption, fully homomorphic encryption, the ALCHEMY approach, testbed applications, homomorphic compilation, interpreter design, language features, components, performance, and future work. The course teaches skills in homomorphic encryption, DSL and interpreter design, and performance evaluation. The teaching method involves lectures and practical examples. This course is intended for programmers and individuals interested in homomorphic encryption and compiler design.
