Robustness and Security (C01)

• Subject Area: Theoretical Computer Science ; Security and Dependability, Operating-, Communication- and Distributed Systems
• Term: from 2011 to 2023
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 160364472

Subproject C1 deals with the robustness and safety of OTF systems. The work of the second funding period will be extended to a trustworthy management of resources. In addition, the robustness of heterogeneous systems will be investigated. C1 will develop access control systems that enable the decentralization of OTF computing via multiparty computation and blockchains, as well as cryptographic techniques that provably meet the specific security requirements of OTF applications.
