Position description
The focus of this position is to conduct research into efficient safety certification of collaborating cyber physical systems, with specific focus on autonomous construction machinery.
The selected researcher will work in the project "SUCCESS' which aims to make significant contributions to the assurance of the safe design and operation of industrial robotics and automation systems (RAS), and is part of the 'Assuring Autonomy International Programme' (AAIP) initiative funded by Lloyd's Register Foundation and the University of York to spearhead research, training and standards in the safety of RAS. The SUCCESS Project at MDH is selected as a demonstrator project for AAIP and has Volvo Construction Equipment and Safety Integrity AB as partners.
You will develop new assurance models and rules for updating risks and confidence pre-deployment as well as during operational phase, thereby realising the notion of dynamic safety cases. You will validate the project deliverables via the demonstrator developed in collaboration with project partners, mainly Volvo CE. You will disseminate the project results through publications, seminar and conference presentations and public engagement and outreach activities; and you will contribute to the SUCCESS Body of Knowledge comprising state-of-the-art techniques, methods and processes for the engineering, assurance, regulation, deployment and operation of RAS.
The position is a temporary employment of 1 year.

Experience safety case argumentation using GSN or other formalisms will be considered as added merit.
Essential personal attributes for this position include attention to detail and commitment to high quality, collaborative ethos, interest in and enthusiasm for the subject matter of the project, positive attitude, and ability to plan and prioritise your own work in order to meet deadlines. You will have experience of carrying out both independent and collaborative research, and of writing up research work for publication in high-quality venues; and ability to work as part of a team, as well as independently using own initiative
