Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) has recently established an Excellence Research Center entitled “Dependable Internet of Things in Adverse Environments”, for further information see http://dependablethings.tugraz.at. The mission of this long-term center is to foster a highly interdisciplinary research team spanning the computer science and electrical engineering faculties to lay the scientific foundations for an Internet of Things that is highly reliable, safe, and secure in order to enable critical applications that require guaranteed performance even in adverse environments. The center is seeking to fill 10 PhD positions with excellent candidates, who will work closely together in four subprojects that focus on the following topics:

  • Dependable Wireless Communication and Localization
  • Dependable Embedded Computing
  • Dependable Composition of Smart Things
  • Dependable Networked Control

One of the open PhD positions is dedicated to cryptography and security in the Internet of Things. A main focus in this context is in particular on security against all kinds of side-channel attacks.
