# Postdoc: Networked Systems Abstractions Lab (LASeR)

Mission The EPFL Networked Systems Abstractions Lab (LASeR) develops programming languages and formal reasoning tools for networked systems. Networks are the invisible infrastructure that connects the modern world, yet programming and reasoning about them remains surprisingly difficult. Our research addresses this challenge in the following domains: Designing expressive languages for specifying network behavior Developing verification techniques for establishing correctness with respect to formal specifications Engineering efficient implementations that make high-level abstractions practical We seek outstanding candidates working in programming languages, formal methods, and/or networking, with interests in one or more of the following areas: NetKAT and its extensions, symbolic automata, routing algebras, packet scheduling, and AI-based cybersecurity. Main duties and responsibilities Conducting research on network abstractions, spanning language design, implementation, and verification. The precise focus will be discussed with the successful candidate depending on their background, expertise and affinities. Possible directions include:Design and semantics of network programming lan
