No Offer Description
The Role and Department The Department of Computer Science at Durham has an outstanding reputation for excellence in teaching, research, and employability of our students. The department is particularly well-known for its strong standing in theoretical computer science. The PDRA will join the Network Engineering Science and Theory in Durham (NESTiD) group in the Computer Science department at Durham University. NESTiD spans a wide area of research underpinning the fundamental theory, practical systems, and applications of networks and distributed computing. The group's research interest includes Network Design and Algorithms, Distributed and Parallel Computing and Algorithms, Networked Systems and Applications, Security and Resilience, Network Science, Dynamism and Processes on Networks, Mathematical theory underpinning Networks and Communication, Social Network design and Human interaction, Cloud, Edge, Fog, and Wireless Networks. ACiD, Algorithms and Complexity in Durham, is a world-leading research group with research programmes in computational complexity, proof complexity, descriptive complexity, graph theory, exact algorithms, randomised algorithms, approximation algorithms, parameterized algorithms, finite model theory, constraint satisfaction, interconnection networks, universal algebra, and mathematical logic. ACiD and NESTiD share many members and there are lots of interactions between the two groups. The Role Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Cryptography with a particular emphasis on provable security for symmetric designs to work on the EPSRC research project Untargeted Attacks in (Password-based) Cryptography. This post is fixed term until the research grant funding ends on 30 September 2025.
The funding is available immediately on appointment of a suitable candidate. The post-holder is employed to work on research/a research project which will be led by another colleague. While this means that the post-holder will not be carrying out independent research in his/her own right, the expectation is that they will contribute to the advancement of the project through the development of their own research ideas/adaptation and development of research protocols. The successful applicant will, ideally, be in post as soon as possible. Contact Information Department contact for academic-related enquiries: For informal enquiries please contact Dr Pooya Farshim. All enquiries will be treated in the strictest confidence. When appointing to this role the University must ensure that it meets any applicable immigration requirements, including salary thresholds which are applicable to some visas.
