PhD Position in Accountable Usage Control for Distributed Data Processing Systems

**Faculty/Services**:Faculty of Science**Educational level**:Master**Function type**:PhD position**Closing date**:15 January 2025**Vacancy number**:13115

**What are you going to do?**
- To realize the aforementioned goals, you will study existing access and usage control models such as XACML and UCON. These models will need to be critically assessed based on elicited requirements, resulting in proposals for novel usage control models and novel data exchange systems. You will contribute to the development of control mechanisms, monitoring approaches, distributed data processing protocols and policy information protocols. You will interact with experts within the CCI group and the AMdEX consortium to elicit legal, privacy and security requirements on the proposed systems. You will develop prototypes and demonstrators based on usage scenarios from providers and consumers of data assets and data processing services, within the DMI ecosystem in particular. Proposed solutions are to be evaluated against functional and non-functional requirements, including security and privacy requirements and scalability.- As a PhD student you will also play an active role in the teaching activities of the department. Typical teaching duties involve assisting students during (programming) labs, assessing students work and (co-)supervising BSc and/or MSc graduation projects.-
- Embedded in the CCI group, you will become part of a large group of fellow PhD students and researchers actively pursuing and solving challenges related to systems and security research, software engineering and systems for data management and data analysis (e.g. using AI).**Tasks and responsibilities**:

- conducting fundamental research in the field of distributed software systems under the supervision of members of faculty;
- collaborate with fellow PhD students and researchers within and outside of the department
- collaborate with privacy/legal experts from project partners, primarily to elicit requirements and gather feedback
- publish and present your work in journals and international conferences
- teaching in one of the bachelor or master programs of the department, typically as an assistant of one of the supervisors
- supervising Bachelor and Master students during their graduation project
- complete and defend a PhD thesis within the employment period

**What do you have to offer?**
- MSc in computer science, software engineering or related discipline (including near-graduates of the running academic year)
- Programming experience, ideally in languages with clearly recognisable object oriented and/or distributed programming elements (such as Rust, Go, C++, etc.).
- The ability to design and implement modular and scalable software systems
- The ability to critically evaluated abstract models as well as concrete implementations
- The ability to work individually as well as effectively in a team
- Professional command of the English language
- Appreciation for programming across (other) paradigms, e.g. functional or declarative programming, are a pre. It is a preference if you have experience in a professional environment and in interacting with people of different disciplines. Experience with blockchain, smart contracts, cloud and virtualization technologies may be an advantage.**More information about the research**
- Data exchange systems are distributed software systems that facilitate the sharing and processing of data assets (datasets and processing algorithms) between organisations. Organisations may be hesitant to participate in data exchange activities, as data assets may be sensitive due to privacy, commercial, safety or other types of constraints. As a result, researchers, innovators and policymakers miss out on opportunities to make the most out of data available at other organisations.- The Complex-Cyber Infrastructures (CCI), research group at the Informatics Institute (IvI) at the University of Amsterdam (UvA) is bringing together research on several relevant topics - such as privacy, security, usage control, normative (software) systems, and software languages - to advance the state of the art in data exchange systems. By combining advancements in these areas, the CCI group proposes novel data exchange solutions in which organisations retain control over the data assets they offer and the risk of data exchange is reduced through, for example, compliance with (privacy) regulations and security requirements. These solutions are brought into practice with industrial and societal partners within the Amsterdam Data Exchange (AMdEX) consortium.- The goal of this PhD position is to conduct fundamental research into novel distributed usage control models with high degrees of accountability, transparency, and human involvement (human-in-the-loop), whilst satisfying (other) legal requirements such as the handling of legal obligations and pre
