PhD and Postdoc in Runtime Verification at Université Paris-Saclay, France

The Software Safety and Security Lab at CEA LIST (Université Paris-Saclay, France) is opening two postdoc and one PhD positions in the area of runtime verification for code safety and security:

• Postdoc: Designing Compilation Techniques for Improving Efficiency of E-ACSL, a Runtime Assertion Checker for C Programs http://julien.signoles.free.fr/positions/postdoc-eacsl.pdf

• Postdoc: Control Flow Integrity for Remote Attestation http://julien.signoles.free.fr/positions/postdoc-cfi.pdf

• PhD: Outline Runtime Assertion Checking http://julien.signoles.free.fr/positions/phd-outline-rac.pdf

The candidates will:

• solve challenging research problems;
• implement their results in Frama-C, an industrial-strength open-source framework for analyses of C code;
• evaluate their solutions on concrete benchmarks or/and use cases;
• publish their results in international conferences and journals.

Requirements vary from one position to another, but strong knowledge in at least one of the following areas is always appreciated:

• programming: OCaml and C, semantics of programming languages, …
• formal verification: runtime verification, static analysis, …
• compilation: code generation, program transformation, type system, …

Interested applicants should send a CV and a motivation letter to Julien Signoles (julien dot signoles at cea dot fr) as soon as possible.
