[Tccc] 2 PhD Scholarships Computer Science - Intelligent Environments at Hasselt University, Belgium

Call for candidates (m/f) for fulltime PhD positions at the Expertise
Centre for Digital Media (EDM), ICT research institute of Hasselt
University in Belgium, in the context of the BOF research project
'Simultaneous Interaction Spaces ':

2 PhD Scholarships (2x2 years each) Computer Science - Intelligent Environments

Envisioned research
The applicants will be focusing on (connected) smart environments in
which context-aware interactive visualizations on arbitrary surfaces
for multiple simultaneous users are realized. This implies
investigating the required supporting infrastructure (hard- and
software) for the creation of such environments, protocols for
communication, software to support users and applications, tools for
end-users and developers to interact, and finally appropriate and
novel ways of interaction. The goal is to develop the next-generation
"everywhere display" for distributed collaborative environments where
large data sets are typically required to accomplish the envisioned
end-user goals.

Profile and diploma
Enthusiastic applicants with excellent study results are invited to
apply. Successful applicants have a keen interest in the
aforementioned research and can work both independently as well as in
team. Candidates should hold a master degree in computer science, a
civil engineer degree in computer science or equivalent. Students, who
will complete these studies during the summer, are also strongly
invited to apply.

Job offer
We offer a challenging research position in EDM, one of the larger
research institutes at UHasselt and a dynamic work environment to
about 70 researchers. EDM is currently investing in a growing ubicomp
research domain, including a state-of-the-art research infrastructure.
Hasselt University offers a full PhD-scholarship for 2x2 years.
