Subject: [Tccc] Reminder: 12 PhD positions in the area of mobile communications
A kind reminder on this call for applications. The deadline is fast
approaching.
Kind regards,
Nikos Passas
CROSSFIRE, a newly launched FP7 Marie Curie Initial Training Network,
offers twelve fully-funded PhD positions in six European countries.
Under an architectural and component level perspective, the project
approaches the emerging Long-Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) network,
which will be populated by uncoordinated and vast number of small cells
(micro, pico and femtocells). We primary aim to provide a holistic
understanding on issues such as co-channel interference from randomly
located small cells (unplanned deployment), efficient utilization of the
scarce spectrum (via cognition), self-organization (SON) and QoE at the
end users, under the assumption that LTE-A networks share a common
physical infrastructure. CROSSFIRE will analyze and propose network
virtualization solutions, a technology which is envisioned to transform
the operation of cellular networks in the years to come. More
information on the project objectives and plan and description of the
positions can be found here: http://gain.di.uoa.gr/crossfire.
These PhD enrollments are under very attractive employment conditions
and competitive salaries offered in Marie Curie Initial Training
Networks. The selected researchers will join well recognized research
groups and have a unique opportunity to pursue a career in mobile
communications. Working in this ambitious research project, should lead
the researchers to the successful completion of a doctoral degree,
together with a very strong joint multidisciplinary research training
program in the field of emerging mobile networks. The planned mobility
among six European countries and eight institutions is a plus of the job
positions.
We are looking for highly motivated, enthusiastic junior scientists,
with a preferential background in mobile networks and network
virtualization. Previous experience in fields directly related to the
specific positions is a plus. Excellent research skills and analytical
abilities are required, fluency in English (both spoken and written),
proactive communication skills and problem solving as part of a team,
strong record keeping, great work ethic and initiatives are essential
characteristics.
Candidates must also meet the following criteria: 1) be in the first
four years (full-time equivalent research experience) of their research
careers; 2) be of any nationality, but not having resided or carried out
their main activity in the country of the host institution of the
position they are applying to for more than 1 year in the past 3 years;
2) have a degree that in their country gives access to a PhD; 3) have
not yet been awarded a PhD degree.
To apply for these positions, please download and fill in the CROSSFIRE
Application Form:
