PhD on AI-Enhanced Time-Critical Computing and Adaptation for Distributed Data-Centric Applications

**Faculteit/Dienst**:Faculteit der Natuurw., Wiskunde & Informatica**Opleidingsniveau**:Master**Functie type**:Promotieplaats**Sluitingsdatum**:31 mei 2024**Vacaturenummer**:12939- **What are you going to do?**- review the state-of-the-art and technical gaps for developing quality critical distributed data-centric computing systems with a specific focus on AI and machine learning-based approaches,
- research, develop, and validate scheduling, optimization, and adaptation algorithms for distributed data-centric computing systems via use cases and state-of-the-art baselines.

**Your profile**- be familiar with AI (machine learning), big data, and data management techniques,
- be experienced in programming (using Java, Python or other languages),
- be willing to learn new theories, methods, and technologies when needed for the project.

**Our offer**
- A temporary contract for 38 hours per week for the duration of 4 years (the initial contract will be for a period of 18 months and after satisfactory evaluation it will be extended for a total duration of 4 years). The preferred starting date is as soon as possible. This should lead to a dissertation (PhD thesis). We will draft an educational plan that includes attendance of courses and (international) meetings. We also expect you to assist in teaching undergraduates and master students.-
- Besides the salary and a vibrant and challenging environment at Science Park we offer you multiple fringe benefits:
- 232 holiday hours per year (based on fulltime) and extra holidays between Christmas and 1 January;
- multiple courses to follow from our Teaching and Learning Centre;
- a complete educational program for PhD students;
- multiple courses on topics such as leadership for academic staff;
- multiple courses on topics such as time management, handling stress and an online learning platform with 100+ different courses;
- 7 weeks birth leave (partner leave) with 100% salary;
- partly paid parental leave;
- the possibility to set up a workplace at home;
- a pension at ABP for which UvA pays two third part of the contribution;
- the possibility to follow courses to learn Dutch;
- help with housing for a studio or small apartment when you’re moving from abroad.

**About us**- The Faculty of Science has a student body of around 8,000, as well as 1,800 members of staff working in education, research or support services. Researchers and students at the Faculty of Science are fascinated by every aspect of how the world works, be it elementary particles, the birth of the universe or the functioning of the brain.- The mission of the Informatics Institute (IvI) is to perform curiosity-driven and use-inspired fundamental research in Computer Science. The main research themes are Artificial Intelligence, Computational Science and Systems and Network Engineering. Our research involves complex information systems at large, with a focus on collaborative, data driven, computational and intelligent systems, all with a strong interactive component.- The MNS group is part of the Systems and Security Lab (SNE), one of the three research clusters at the Informatics Institute. The group focuses its research on the fundamental architectural problems that arise from the interconnection of systems and data flows. We look at the emerging architectures that can support the operations of the future Internet. In particular, we focus on delivering secure and sustainable ICT services across multiple domains. Device programmability and virtualization play in this field an ever-increasing role in designing networks and ICT infrastructures. We address the interoperability challenges in supporting discovery, analysis and interoperation between heterogeneous complex infrastructures. Our vision is to build an effective ‘knowledge fiber’ to facilitate information discovery, integration, and reuse across distributed infrastructures.**Any questions?**
