PhD Fellowship @ Roskilde university, Denmark at DIIS and RUC on Value Chain Analysis of Aquaculture Products-Science Subject

Description: The successful PhD candidate will be working under two SEAT Work Packages that examine: (1) the social and economic dynamics of value chains for selected aquaculture products; and (2) the role of standards and certifications in governing such value chains. The overall objectives of this work are:

· Examine the configuration of global value chains for aquatic products originating in two Asian countries, their governance structures and upgrading possibilities, and the role of standards in shaping governance and upgrading; assess the entry barriers, structure of rewards and demands on quality and logistics that arise for actors at different levels.

· Compare different institutional arrangements to link small and medium producers
to these value chains and evaluate how national and international policy and regulatory frameworks for fisheries and trade facilitate or hinder integration in value chains for aquatic products.

· Analyse the costs and benefits, and inclusion and exclusion thresholds, for particular groups of producers (i.e. small and medium producers), countries or regions for production and marketing of cultured seafood.

PhD research fellowship @ University of Dublin, Trinity College : in Optical Internet Architectures

We intend to further investigate a set of topics that will lead to the design and implementation of the smart network of the future. Such topics are highly interconnected and include:

• Dynamic traffic aggregation to support transparent optical networks and efficient multi-layer traffic switching (i.e., switching traffic at the lowest/most efficient layer)
• Intelligent, self-aware networks, capable of reconfiguring links depending on application service requirements and network state
• Dynamic traffic switching at multiple layers: fiber, waveband, wavelength, packet (layer2), service (layer-3), as needed.
• Peer-to-peer based content delivery to help reducing the load on core networks (where peer-to-peer is used as a network strategy rather than as an individual user application)

PhD fellowship,Computer Science@ Sweden

 

Subject: Verification of Parallel Programs,

Place: at the Department of Information Technology, Uppsala University
Study Subject: Computer Science

Level: PhD

Scholarship Description: The work will concern development of techniques for automatic formal verification of and defect detection in parallel programs, by developing and combining techniques from areas including software model checking, static program analysis, and constraint solving.

The work will largely be carried out both in the context of the UPMARC research center, as well as be supported by a focus project support by VR.
Requirements:
1). Master of Science in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent, in a field
2). He/She should have a good background in some of the fields program analysis, compiler techniques, formal techniques and logic, testing, software engineering, and similar, as well as to be proficient in implementing non-trivial algorithms.
 Time period: The position is for a maximum of five years and includes departmental duties at a level of at most 20% (typically teaching).
Application: The application should include a description of research interests and past experience, a CV, copies of exams, degrees and grades, a copy of Master thesis (or a draft thereof), relevant publications, and other relevant documents. Candidates are encouraged to provide letter(s) of recommendation and contact information to reference persons, as well as earliest feasible starting date of employment.
