Postdoc in Verified, Distributed Data Stream Processing

Copenhagen

FULL TIME

October 2, 2024

Department of Computer Science
Faculty of Science
University of Copenhagen

The postdoc position is part of the research project DISCOVER (Distributed Streaming Computations, Verified) funded by the Independent Research Fund Denmark (DFF).
Today’s software and hardware systems produce massive amounts of data. Stream processing frameworks are vital tools for software engineers and data scientists to tame this data. They provide convenient programming abstractions that allow their users to express the desired data analysis. From the expressed analysis, they generate a distributed program and deploy it on computing clusters, which enables the massively parallel processing of data. Apache Flink, Apache Spark, and Google Cloud Dataflow are examples of mature stream processing frameworks that are widely used in industry. For thousands of users these frameworks serve as both the programming language and the operating system. Yet, these systems exhibit unreliable and unpredictable behavior, which prohibits their use in scenarios that cannot tolerate errors such as data loss. The goal of the position is to contribute to an ongoing formalization effort using the Isabelle proof assistant towards the first formally verified system for the analysis of big data.
Applicants must hold a Ph D in computer science or a closely related field. The ideal candidate is an experienced proof assistant user (e.g., of Isabelle), has some experience with reasoning about distributed systems or reasoning by coinduction, and is generally interested in formal methods, logic, and engineering correct software.
The postdoc’s main duty is to carry out research within the scope of DISCOVER and in close collaboration with other project participants. The post may also include performance of other duties, such as undergraduate student (co)supervision.
