Ireland : Ph.D Studentships in Middleware for Wireless Sensor Networks

Applicants are invited for a number of Ph.D studentships which exist within Clarity: Centre for Sensor Web Technologies. These studentships will be in the crucial area of middleware for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). On-going research within Clarity is concerned with the provision of middleware that supports the management and self management of WSNs. Specifically a sensor middleware entitled SIXTH is under development which will support such issues as (re)programming, visualization, monitoring of WSN wellness indicators and ultimately the development of autonomic WSNs. 

Applicants should have a keen interest in one or more of the following areas: Wireless Sensor Networks, Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) and Middleware for Embedded Systems. Applicants would be expected to exhibit the appropriate Software Engineering skills, been able to express clearly their research in a written and spoken form and be ambitious and highly motivated. 

Studentships would be in the form of a tax free scholarship and fee payment of circa €25,000 per annum for a 3 year period. Successful applicants would join an internationally recognized research centre (www.clarity-centre.org) and a very active research group in the Intelligent Middleware for Wireless Sensor Networks area with a strong publication and research grant procurement culture. 

Interested candidates should send a detailed curriculum vitae, letter of application, copies of relevant university transcripts and for non native English speakers evidence of English Language competence (TOEFL, IELTS). These should be addressed to

Professor Gregory O'Hare,
CLARITY: Centre for Sensor Web Technologies,
School of Computer Science & Informatics,
University College Dublin (UCD) Belfield,
Dublin 4, Ireland. 

Applicants will be received on an on-going basis until such time as the posts are filled. These positions are available immediately or as soon thereafter as possible.
