The IT University of Copenhagen seeks to hire outstanding researchers
at its Interdisciplinary Centre for Democracy and Technology
(DemTech).

The research will be conducted under the supervision of Carsten
Schuermann.  DemTech specializes on mathematical foundations of secure
multi-party computation, the design and analysis of cryptographic
primitives and protocols, formal languages for voting systems and
their properties, and automated tools to reason about them. DemTech
has expertise in both the symbolic and the computational styles of
protocol analysis. DemTech has established itself as a leading center
for research on trust and security in election technologies.

Your role is to work on the logical foundations of secure multi-party
distributed systems, the modelling of voting protocols, the automated
extraction of software from high-level description, and the automatic
