ENSTA Bretagne was founded in 1971 and is a multidisciplinary engineering institute under the auspices of the French Defence Ministry (DGA). ENSTA Bretagne has established itself in the field of IT oriented research, thought its laboratory Lab-STICC (UMR 6285), standing for ”Information and Communication Science and Technology Laboratory. Lab-STICC is a French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) mixed unit shared with two universities and two other engineering institutes.
Lab-STICC’s focus can be summed up in the following motto: COMMUNICATE and DECIDE « from sensor to knowledge » standing for bringing solutions for physical layers at radio- frequency level, designing data transmission and management systems based on advances in both algorithmic and micro-electronic fields, and analysing information to deliver knowledge to final users.
Lab-STICC ENSTA Bretagne has been developing several tools that perform system level design and verification (OBP, http://www.obpcdl.org/), high-level synthesis (Morphose), and low-level reconfigurable architecture modelling & design kit (Madeo), that are currently being retargeted to security concerns.
Lab-STICC offers 2 PhD Positions:
1) PhD Position: Perennial hardware accelerators generation
2) PhD Position: Deployment of secured virtual machines
