-----------------------------
A PhD position is opened in the POPS INRIA Team in Lille/France.
(http://www.lifl.fr/POPS/)
Title:
"Self-deployment algorithms for substitution network"
Scientific context:
A fleet of mobile routers could be used to deploy a substitution
network in order to help an already existing network (called base
network hereafter) that is faced to difficulties (like, for instance,
an equipment failure, a power failure, or a high traffic increase).
Due to its autonomous mobile components and to the use of wireless
links, the substitution network is very likely to have a limited
capacity compared to the base network. Therefore a very careful
deployment and management of the substitution network is required.
Goal:
The PhD candidate should provide some algorithms and protocols to
manange the deployment of the substitution network. More specifically,
the wireless mobile routers must be deployed so that the performances
of the networks are maximized. This deployment should consider
topology issues such as hidden terminals or flow in the middle.
Moreover, constraints such as connectivity, performances, QoS and
energy consumption have to be considered. Evaluation of the proposed
algorithms/protocols will be performed by theoretical analysis,
simulations and real implementations.
Required skills:
The candidate must have:
- A MSc degree in computer science, or a related field is required.
- Knowledge in wireless networking.
- Good skills in programming are necessary.
- Excellent organizational and communication skills.
Each application must contain the following documents:
- a detailed CV in English
- a list of relevant academic courses (with grades)
- a list of 1 or 2 references with contact addresses
- a 1-page research statement, indicating the experience/interest with
respect to the proposed topics
Starting date:
October 2010.
Applications should be sent electronically to
