[Tccc] Two Ph.D. student positions in large-scale communication systems at KTH Royal Institute of Technology

We invite applications for research and graduate studies towards the degree
of Doctor of Philosophy that center around the following topics.

. Network Search-providing Google-like search functions for operational and
configuration data in networks and networked systems
. Autonomous resource management for data centers and large-scale clouds

The positions will be with the Network Management group at the Laboratory
for Communication Networks (LCN). The group has a strong track record in
scalable management of networked systems, and it maintains a network of
collaborations, both within KTH and internationally. The successful
candidates will join the ACCESS LINNAEUS Centre that conducts research
towards future networked systems (www.access.kth.se).

A Ph.D. student position at KTH extends over a maximum of five years and
includes 80% time for research and 20% for department duties, typically
teaching.

The starting dates for the positions are planned for the second quarter of
2010.

We seek highly motivated individuals holding an M.Sc. degree in computer
science, electrical engineering, or a related area. An applicant must have
excellent academic credentials, a well-documented background in
communication or computing (preferably both), and a proven interest in
applying theoretical results from science and engineering to creating novel
technology. Expertise in some of the following areas is required:
networking, distributed algorithms, stochastic processes, protocol modeling
and analysis, software engineering.

Application:
The application deadline is March 31, 2009. Applications should contain a
letter of presentation with a research statement, curriculum vitae, grade
reports, and references.
