•Students will benefit from an extremely lively research and teaching environment in top, state-of-the-art, areas.
•Full financial support, through a number of scholarships to cover tuition and expenses of students, regardless of nationality.
•Students can apply to both programs.
Main research areas of this call
•SECURITY AND INTRUSION TOLERANCE in Distributed Systems
•DEPENDABILITY and ADAPTATION in Real-Time and Embedded Systems
Knowing more about the research opportunities
Research areas, aligned with international projects:
•DEPENDABLE AND SECURE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM ARCHITECTURES
◦KEYWORDS: critical infrastructures such as electrical utilities; grid and cloud computing; middleware and protocols; intrusion tolerance, Byzantine resilience and computing with trustworthy components
•EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATION OF ATTACK TOLERANCE IN DISTR. SYS.
◦KEYWORDS: commerce and critical infrastructures; attack injection tools
•DEPENDABLY ADAPTIVE REAL-TIME DISTR. SYSTEM ARCHITECTURES
◦KEYWORDS: automotive; car-to-car and car-to-infrastructure; systems of embedded systems; middleware and protocols; autonomy and cooperation; uncertainty vs. predictability; QoS adaptation
•SECURITY AND RESILIENCE OF NETWORKED AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS
◦KEYWORDS: embedded systems security; trusted ad-hoc peer-to-peer car coordination; car to home-base communication; secure and safe upload, download
These areas are aligned with 3 international projects starting late 2010:
•TCLOUDS - Trustworthy Clouds – Privacy and Resilience for Internet-scale Critical Infrastructure (EC-IST FP7)
•MASSIF - MAnagement of Security information and events in Service (EC-IST FP7)
•TRONE - Trustworthy and Resilient Operations in a Network Environment (FCT CMUPortugal program)
