Internship on "Micro Network Architecture"?
at Toyota InfoTechnology Center, Mountain View, USA.

* Context
Toyota ITC conducts advanced research and technology development
of intelligent information processing technologies. There are many on-going research projects [JBK1] for micro networks that are applied to home, medical, and sensors. Small sensors, actuators, and low power wireless/wired devices will play prominent roles in these networks.
We are highly interested in exploring the architecture of these micro networks
and identifying possible technical challenges such as addressing, routing, transport, QoS, etc.

* Objectives
The objective of the internship is to provide interns with opportunities to utilize and apply their state-of-the-art knowledge to develop and enhance intelligent information processing technologies. Interns will use simulations to identify micro network architecture issues and propose designs. If time permits, implementations on embedded systems will also be considered as well as an academic publication based on the output of the internship.

* Qualifications
We are looking for graduate students in Computer Science or Electrical
Engineering to complete a three to five month internship, full-time. Candidates are expected to have strong competences in networking (Medium Access Control, IPv6), UNIX systems, C/C++ programming and simulation tools. Knowledge in embedded
systems would be a plus. In addition to the above qualifications, candidates should have strong practical and problem-solving skills, the ability to independently produce high quality work, and excellent oral and written communication skills.
 
* Compensation and Working Environment
Toyota ITC will pay its interns competitive wages and provide a comfortable research environment with abundant opportunities to gain IT-focused R&D experience. 

* Administrative details:
- Summer internship for a duration of 3 to 5 months in Toyota ITC,
Mountain View, CA, USA (http://www.toyota-itc.com/en/).
