This is an 11-month position to support an Australian Research Council
funded Future Fellowship project, entitled "Increasing internet energy
and cost efficiency by improving higher-layer protocols". The
successful candidate will work with a team in the Energy Management
Research Centre (EMRC) and Centre for Advanced Internet Architectures
(CAIA) at Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, Australia,
to conduct research in exploring algorithmic aspects of energy
management in data centres and the smart grid.
Relevant to the project are the following research activities:
* developing new sleep / resource management algorithms,
* proving performance bounds on the above algorithms,
* developing non-intrusive load monitoring systems for estimating
device power use,
* studying optimal power flow in the presence of demand-response,
* studying new market structures for an efficient smart grid
* simulation and visualization of the above,
* programming in C/C++/Matlab.
Required qualifications:
The positions require a strong background in at least one of the
following areas:
* the theory of network congestion control
* stochastic modeling and performance analysis
* worst-case analysis of algorithms
* data mining
* signal processing
* power systems,
and an in-depth understanding of at least two of the followings:
* queuing theory, optimisation theory, online algorithms, and game theory.
The ideal candidate will have a PhD in an area related to the above,
but strong candidates will be considered even before the completion of
a bachelor's degree. Evidence of ability is more desirable than
extensive experience.
The Salary will be $55,640 - $75,289 depending on qualifications and
experience.
Application:
Application is now open until 5pm AEDT 5 December, 2012. (Note: This
is 4 December in the US and Europe.)
