To support such analysis in an  awareness system, while addressing the privacy concerns, we are building  into our system a facility that supports computation of simple  statistics on encrypted data. This facility can be extended in a number  of ways to support a greater variety of computations. There are a wealth  of research questions related to designing such a system to support the  types of computations useful to our application while choosing the best  tradeoffs in terms of storage, bandwidth, division of labor between the  third party and the clients, computation time at encryption, time to  compute the statistics, and time to decrypt.<\/p>\n<p>Prospective candidates should be enrolled in a PhD program and have  significant experience in privacy and security, particularly computation  on or search of encrypted data.<\/p>\n<p>The intern will be hosted by <a title=\"Eleanor Rieffel\" href=\"http:\/\/fxpal.com\/people\/rieffel\/\" target=\"_blank\">Eleanor Rieffel<\/a>.\u00a0 For more information on the FXPAL internship program, please visit our <a title=\"Internships at FXPAL | fxpal.com\" href=\"http:\/\/fxpal.com\/?p=internships\" target=\"_blank\">web site<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the third of a series of posts advertising internship positions at FXPAL for the summer of 2010.\u00a0 A listing of all blog posts about our 2010 internship positions is available here.
