PhD Localization methods in Smart Dust Sensor NetworksDetail in (Deadline March 16th, 2009) http://www.utwente.nl/vacatures/en/09-034-eng.doc/ Research project description Smart dust sensor networks, consisting of very small sensor nodes capable of limited computation, sensing, and communication, are envisioned to fulfill complex large-scale monitoring tasks in a wide variety of application areas. Smart dust networks differ from current wireless sensor networks in a number of ways: - Small size: current RF antennas are too large for dust nodes; - Mobility: future Smart Dust nodes are likely to be small enough to be moved by winds or even to remain suspended in air. This is in contrast to current sensor nodes, which are typically immobile due to their size and weight; - Large scale: the expected small size and low cost of future Smart Dust nodes will allow very large number of nodes; - Very low energy; - Limited computing and memory resources. In many potential smart dust applications, such as object detection and tracking, fine-grained node localization plays a key role. Traditional localization methods are difficult to use in smart dust systems since the topology is an ad-hoc network, which can be mobile as well. This PhD project will focus on the localization methods in smart dust sensor networks with the following research topics: - Inertial navigation techniques, using motion sensors to continuously track the position, orientation, and velocity of a moving object, without the need for external references; - RRSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator), which would allow the many sensors, that constitute a mesh network, to calculate their locations based on the time it takes for the radio signal to reach its neighboring sensors; - New localization techniques. PhD student Piezoelectric devicesDetail in (Deadline March 15, 2009) http://www.utwente.nl/vacatures/en/09-027-eng.doc/ In this project, we aim to develop novel piezoelectric devices and extract physical parameters thereof.

PhD students in the EU project ‘BRICS’ (Robotics)Detail in (Deadline 1 April 2009) http://www.utwente.nl/vacatures/en/09-017-eng.doc/ Robotic systems and applications are about to become a key technology to address two socioeconomicmegatrends: the over-aging societies and the competitiveness in the global markets. To address the most urgent needs of an over-aging society, a multitude of service robots will have to be developed in a rather short time. To persist in an increasingly harsh competition with low-wage countries the innovation and production cycles in Europe have to be reduced significantly asking for new and flexible automation solutions. Robot developers in academia and industry badly need common research platforms and development tools shortening the development cycles for new robot systems and applications significantly. In other areas such as telecommunication or automotive industry or embedded systems industry much effort has been made in the past years to design such integrated development environments. The robotics community has to follow these models in order to make robot technology an innovative key technology as stated above. BRICS is going to address this urgent need.

The University of Naples Federico II is a large research university and the oldest state university in the world. Its Research Doctorate Programs aim to train a selected number of young people, endowed with a high quality preparation and having the enjoyment for the research, to a high level of scientific, technical and professional qualification. The Doctorate Schools of the University promote advanced training in almost all the fields of the knowledge by organizing basic courses of wide and considerable scientific content both with the support of its own professors and with the aid of the Italian and foreign scholars. Specific courses related to the chosen research program are organized by the single Doctorate Courses. The research activities are carried out both in the Departments of the University and in distinguished national and international scientific institutions. http://www.unina.it/ricerca/scuoledidottorato/en/index.jsp Deadline: 10 November 2008 [Sent by: Mahdin Mahboob] |
