The Computer Science department of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering,
Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) at the University of Twente (UT) is
one of the largest academic institutions in computer science in the
Netherlands, with 220 faculty members and 1200 students. We provide courses
in Technical Computer Science, Business Information Technology, and
Telematics. In addition, the department contributes to Computer Science
teaching within other academic programs. The research of the department is
part of the multidisciplinary research institute Centre for Telematics and
Information Technology (www.ctit.utwente.nl).
The Distributed and Embedded Systems (DIES) research group of EEMCS/CTIT
collaborates with a number of academic and industrial partners in the ALwEN
project. The scientific goals of the ALwEN project are to cope with design
complexity of large-scale Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) systems; to create
adaptive network management solutions; to understand and predict overall
system level properties such as energy consumption, latency and throughput;
to support the effective deployment of large WSN applications by minimizing
the amount of effort spent to program and debug such applications; to
address the security and privacy requirements that are related to Ambient
Living and health care applications with WSN systems.
We are looking for a PostDoc (three years) who will investigate key
management and secure data aggregation in wireless sensor networks (vacancy
number 08/016).
*What we ask and what we offer** *
You have completed a Ph.D. in an area that is relevant to our research, e.g.
computer science, electrical engineering, or mathematics. You like working
in a team and have intellectual curiosity and knowledge of distributed
systems, and security. Your main responsibility will be to carry out
research, but you will be given the opportunity to acquire some teaching
experience.
We offer our researchers the opportunity to broaden their knowledge by
joining international exchange programs, by participating in national and
international conferences and workshops, and by visiting other research
institutes and universities worldwide.
The monthly salary of a PostDoc starts at EURO 2802,- gross per month and is
negotiable depending on experience.
