[ecoop-info] Postdoctoral researcher and PhD candidate positions (m/f) at the University of Luxembourg

[Jacques Klein]

The University of Luxembourg seeks outstanding researchers for the 
recently formed Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and 
Trust (SnT) http://www.securityandtrust.lu, carrying out 
interdisciplinary research in secure, reliable and trustworthy ICT 
(Information and Communication Technologies) systems and services, often 
in collaboration with industrial, governmental or international 
partners. SnT is active in several international research projects 
funded by the EU 7th framework programme and the European Space Agency.

The Centre, and in particular, the Serval research group leaded by the 
Prof. Yves Le Traon invites applications for:

*Postdoctoral researcher and PhD candidate positions (m/f)

Postdoctoral researcher position: *funded by an European project in the 
Ambient-Assisted Living (AAL) framework. Research Areas: Security and 
Privacy Modeling, Dynamic Adaptive System, Security Testing.
The duration of the postdoctoral position is 24 months and may be 
extended up to five years. The University offers highly competitive 
salaries based on the candidate's experience and is an equal opportunity 
employer. You will work in an exciting international environment and 
will have the opportunity to participate in the development of a newly 
created university.

Other postdoctoral positions are open at the SnT.
More information on open positions and requirements can be found on 
www.securityandtrust.lu

*PhD candidate positions: *in the domains of Security Testing (Access 
Control, Android Permission, ...), Dynamic Adaptive System Testing, 
Model Composition. Currently, the subjects of these funded PhD positions 
are quite open, but examples of potential subjects are proposed below.
The duration of the PhD candidate position is 36 months and may be 
extended up to a fourth year.  The University offers highly competitive 
salaries and is an equal opportunity employer. You will work in an 
exciting international environment and will have the opportunity to 
participate in the development of a newly created university.

/*PhD Subject Description 1 (Ref: MITER)
*/The PhD thesis will take place in the MITER project. This project aims 
at developing new modeling techniques to 1) represent security concerns 
(e.g. access control and usage control policies), 2) compose them with 
the business logic model (called target model), and 3) test the security 
model composition against security requirements. These three objectives 
converge to an integrated model-driven security process which allows a 
business model to embed various security concerns, and makes these 
security properties testable by construction. In other words, the MITER 
project should allow the trustfully design of a large family of secure 
systems in an automatic and efficient way.

/*PhD Subject Title 2 (Ref: AccessControl) in collaboration with Prof. 
Tao Xie from North Carolina State University, Raleigh, USA".*/
Model transformation across different policy models and reverse 
engineering of policy models.
