Despite robots increasingly entering our work lives, we know surprisingly little about their impact on jobs. Engineers are excited to build intelligent robotic applications with the aim to alleviate difficult, risky, or boring jobs, such as cleaning, bomb diffusion, transportation of goods or surveillance. Labor economists and public commentators, in turn, put forward gloomy scenarios of jobs becoming obsolete, degraded or void of meaning. Currently, however, we lack a rigorous insight into how robots are really used in situated work practice. Without such insight, engineers are in the dark about what impact robots have on work and have few methods of including work context into account when building robotic applications. This NWO-funded Vidi project aims to generate such insight by conducting several ethnographic studies of professional service robots at work. In this context, we are looking for a candidate to fill one Postdoc position for a duration of two years. Starting date is flexible throughout 2024 and will be agreed on with the suitable candidate.

Do you enjoy working in an interdisciplinary research setting working on cutting edge technologies and do you want to expand your knowledge on state-of-the-art AI, Normative Systems and data-sharing and data-processing infrastructures? The Informatics Institute is looking for an ambitious PhD candidate to work on Sovereign Normative Compliant Cloud Services for the Digital Government. Your research is part of the Complex Cyber Infrastructures (CCI) research group. Background and Motivation A growing need for remote access to public services as well as the need for effective and cost-efficient collaborating governments are levering cloud computing technologies. Cloud computing technologies have a great potential for governments to provide both efficient as well as cost-effective public services. Cloud services offer many advantages, particularly scalability and continuity of public services. However, the adoption of cloud services by governments also poses significant challenges related to data privacy, purposeful processing and other legal demands, as well as security, and sovereignty issues. In addition, the lack of accountability in cloud service provisioning and management forms a potential political risk for shared service centres responsible for organizing the deployment of cloud services. Therefore, there is a need to investigate how cloud services for the digital government can be leveraged to enable digital sovereignty, legal compliance, data safety and security and how shared service centres should hold their partner organisations that provide cloud service technologies accountable in order to being able to accept liability for delivering the required cloud services to their clients, both governmental agencies as well as citizens. Previous research (see Koning, R. (2020). Automating network security. PhD-thesis, Universiteit van Amsterdam and Makkes, M.X. (2018) PhD-thesis, Virtual internets, Universiteit van Amsterdam.) has showed the power of software defined infrastructures, using software scripts that control its entire lifecycle. This approach has great potential as it allows for safe and secure (governmental) infrastructures that in combination with certified service-components will result in infrastructures with controllable characteristics that their deployers can take (legal) responsibility for. Recent developments show the power of software generation using state-of-the-art techniques in Generative AI and Large Language Models. In this research the PhD candidate will investigate these state-of-the-art techniques for generating norm-compliant infrastructures that support recent digital government initiatives, particularly governmental shared services. The research will also explore the challenges that come with legal and ethical considerations related to the use of Generative AI and Large Language Models in digital government initiatives. The expected outcome of the research is to determine the potential of Generative AI and Large Language Models as a means for government officials to specify the tasks of the services in the cloud. The research will also provide a demonstrator and recommendations on the legal and ethical use of Generative AI and Large Language Models in the context of digital government initiatives, particularly governmental shared services. The research outcomes will be of interest to policymakers, government officials, cloud service providers, and researchers in the field of digital government and artificial intelligence. Research Objectives: The primary objective of this research is to explore the generation of digital sovereign and normative compliant cloud services that enable accountability in the context of a digital government. The specific objectives are to: investigate the concept of digital sovereignty in the context of a digital government and to identify the factors that enable or hinder the achievement of digital sovereignty. This includes questions such as: How could one realize and exploit such digital infrastructures,how could one achieve multi-vendor and multi-state collaboration at EU scale (sharing costs and investments)explore the potential of generative AI in generating digital infrastructure that is normative compliant, scalable, and cost-effective.identify the factors that contribute to accountability in cloud service provisioning and management and to develop a framework for ensuring accountability in the context of a digital government. This research will be done in collaboration with a PhD candidate from Delft University (TBM) who will address the transformation from current IT-infrastructures to the future digital cloud services for the digital government amongst others. Research Methodology: The research will be conducted using a mixed-methods approach, including qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis techniques. The research will involve a literature review of relevant theoretical and empirical literature on cloud services, digital sovereignty, generative AI and infrastructure generation, normative compliance and accountability in the context of a digital government. The literature review will provide the basis for developing a conceptual framework for the research. The research will also involve case studies of selected digital government initiatives that have leveraged cloud services to achieve digital sovereignty, infrastructure generation, and accountability. The case studies will be conducted using semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, and document analysis. The research will also involve a survey of government officials and cloud service providers to gather quantitative data on the factors that enable or hinder the achievement of digital sovereignty, infrastructure generation, and accountability. Expected Outcomes The research is expected to contribute to the theoretical and empirical fundaments for cloud services that feature digital sovereignty, infrastructure generation, normative compliance and accountability in the context of a digital government. The research is also expected to contribute to governmental policies ensuring accountability in cloud service provisioning and management in the context of a digital government. The research outcomes will be of interest to policymakers, government officials, cloud service providers, and researchers in the field of digital government.Requirements: Your experience and profile:a master degree in Informatics with a strong affinity with Artificial Intelligence and Social Sciences (Sociology, Economics, Political Science, or related fields)strong engineering and empirical research skills;familiarity with quantitative and qualitative research methods,good knowledge of current developments in information technology including generative AI;academic excellence, as shown in the grade transcripts and curriculum vitae.a creative mind and analytical intelligence;an interest in working in a multidisciplinary team;willingness to learn new knowledge, and acquire new skills required by the project;excellent written and spoken command of English, and ideally knowledge of Dutch;interest in working on interdisciplinary topics, in interdisciplinary teams.

PRONTO (PROperty prediction by Network TOpology modelling of polymer films) is a 3-PhD project concerning ‘drying’ of paints or coating solutions, a solidification process where multifunctional monomers in the liquid polymerize into a polymer network: a single large molecule spanning the entire volume. Rates of reactions and diffusion define the network formation, but are dramatically influenced by the density of the growing network. To address this complexity, the PRONTO researchers will develop multiscale computational models connecting atomic-level molecular simulations, mesoscopic reaction kinetics and network modelling, and macroscopic continuum modelling. PRONTO is a collaboration between Universiteit van Amsterdam, Utrecht University, Canon Production Printing (Venlo), AkzoNobel Performance Coatings (Sassenheim), Reden (Engineering and simulation, Hengelo OV) and the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The project is financed by NWO and Canon. What are you going to do? This project is focusing on several issues for atomistic simulations with acrylate: establishing more realistic conditions, inferring kinetic information (complementary to experiments) and prediction of thermo-mechanical properties. In atomic simulations, the positions of all molecules and atoms are known and essentially permitting computation of any microscopically defined quantity, providing understanding at the atomic level. Atomic simulations will reveal gaps in property predictions by Random Graph modeling and means to improve upon Random Graphs. You will develop and apply computational models (Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamics) as practical aid for predicting, controlling, and improving visual appearance and mechanical properties of thin (10 μm) acrylate films used in large-scale industrial printing.

Are you a highly motivated physicist interested in a postdoctoral research position at the intersection between nanophotonics and 2D material science? The 2D Nanophotonics group within the Institute of Physics has an open position for the project “Excitonic 2D metasurfaces for active multifunctional flat optics”. The aim is to employ exciton resonances in monolayer 2D semiconductors to actively tune the optical response of metasurfaces. Optical metasurfaces offer ultra-flat and compact alternatives to conventional bulky optical elements like mirrors, lenses, and prisms. By accurate engineering of the resonant light-matter interaction of arrays of nanostructures, light can be scattered in a controlled fashion to perform an optical function. While such optical metasurfaces are nowadays highly efficient and well established, their optical function is typically static. In this (3 year-) project you will study the strong light-matter interactions of stable excitons in monolayer 2D semiconductor material and couple these materials to resonant metasurfaces. Using their combination, you will investigate the unique properties of these 2D quantum materials and use them to develop multifunctional and atomically thin optical elements with an electrically tunable optical function. You will be joining an exciting team of researchers with a strong emphasis on collaboration.
