Dear all, Klaus von Gleissenthall and I are looking for a PhD student to develop effective and scalable tools to guard against side-channel attacks. In hardware, an attacker can measure certain physical quantities such as the time elapsed or the power consumed during a computation to recover a surprising amount of secret information. Such attacks are easy to implement, difficult to detect, and powerful against strong encryption mechanisms. As part of the PhD research we will apply techniques from the analysis of cryptographic protocols and adapt them to the setting of hardware to design a novel verification framework for processors. Your duties will be to carry out research towards writing a PhD thesis at the department of Computer Science at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, collaborate with PhD students, postdocs and staff members within the department, and perform light supervision tasks (roughly 15% of your time), for instance supervising Master and/or Bachelor thesis projects. There will be opportunities to take courses for professional and personal development. We offer a salary of € 2.770,00 to € 3.539,00 gross per month in the fourth year for a full-time employment, a holiday leave entitlement of 232 hours per year, 8% holiday allowance and 8.3% end-of-year bonus, contribution to commuting expenses, optional model for designing a personalized benefits package, and a solid pension scheme (ABP). If you are interested, you can drop me a message. Best wishes, Kristina -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Homotopy Type Theory" group.
