Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Internet of Things

About this position

Activities and context

This project aims to develop smart agriculture applications for the IoT computing continuum, which distributes processing across devices, edge nodes, and cloud infrastructure. A methodology will be established to represent applications as unified code, enabling their division into microservices or nanoservices that operate at various stages of the continuum. Furthermore, a compilation process and a directed acyclic graph (DAG)-based execution framework will be implemented to generate deployable code.

Mandatory requirements

The candidate must hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, with less than 7 years since graduation. A highly motivated candidate is expected to have a background in the following concepts:

• IoT, cloud, fog, edge, and the computing continuum;

• Programming language paradigms and compilation techniques;

• Advanced programming language skills;

• Advanced English language skills;

• Strong publication record.
