Contexte et atouts du poste

This PhD thesis is part of a collaboration between two Inria teams (Convecs in Grenoble and Spirals in Lille).The main location of the PhD thesis will be Grenoble (Inria Grenoble is located at Montbonnot Saint Martin). The project is funded by the Research National Agency (ANR) in the context of the PEPR Cloud project.

Mission confiée

Resource provisioning languages (such as TOSCA) allow one to model resource
properties and dependencies for distributed applications (for instance components interacting
via a network and hosting software), but also to automate provisioning, deployment
and instantiation of these resources. The resource provisioning languages
provide support to the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) approach, which is widely
present in the industry. These languages can also be considered as architecture
description languages (ADL). The IaC approach is particularly popular and used
in cloud computing in order to avoid manual tasks and thus automate as much as
possible the deployment and update of applications based on services available
in the cloud.

Principales activités

The first objective of this PhD Thesis is to extend and improve resource
provisioning languages in terms of expressiveness while providing a formal semantics
to them. The plan is to study existing resource provisioning languages (including TOSCA),
in order to evaluate them in terms of expressiveness and precisely identify the
application lifecycles allowed by these languages. This study could lead to
the definition of a new Domain Specific Language expressive enough to represent
complex orchestration operators and model specific lifecycles. This new
language will be equipped with a formal semantics so as to avoid ambiguity and
simplify its further analysis.

The second objective of this PhD Thesis is to develop automated analysis
techniques to verify behavioural and quantitative properties that must respect
the applications deployed using the aforementioned languages. Several functional
properties have already been identified for resource provisioning languages.
To analyze these properties, a possible solution is to rely on model checking techniques.
The verification of quantitative properties is also planned, particularly
deployment times and costs but also the detection of undesired delays that could be
avoided during the deployment or reconfiguration of a cloud application.

All the contributions made during this PhD Thesis will be validated via
prototype tools and applied on realistic case studies.

Compétences

# Required skills and profile:

 - Knowledge of cloud computing and information/data models is welcome
 - Knowledge of formal methods (concurrency theory) and verification is a plus
 - Candidates who enjoy programming would be appreciated, as the work will include software development
 - Education: MSc/Master 2 Recherche in Computer Science
 - Good command of English as the working language, French is a plus
