MSc Position in IPv6 testbed development and testing of TCP

MSc Position in IPv6 testbed development and testing of TCP Applications are invited by well-qualified applicants for an MSc position in the areas of IPv6 testbed development and testing of new TCP congestion control variants.

TCP is known to perform poorly in high bandwidth-delay product paths and this has led to a number of proposals for redesign of the congestion control strategy, including Cubic TCP (currently enabled by default in Linux), Compound TCP (proposed by Microsoft and under review at the IRTF) and H-TCP (proposed by researchers at the Hamilton Institute and implemented in Linux). This project will build on initial evaluation work carried out at the Hamilton Institute with a view to enhancing our understanding of the new issues raised by these, and other, proposed changes and taking an active role in the current IRTF/IETF review process.

IPv6 is a replacement for the Internet's transport layer, which has been developed by the IETF over the last 15 years. A number of standards now make use of IPv6, including the Internet Messaging System (IMS). The Hamilton Institute is to provide and support IPv6 test-bed connectivity between the partners of the IMS ARCS (www.ims-arcs.ie).

Applicants should have a basic understanding of IP networking and should have some familiarity with the configuration and use of Linux or BSD systems. Good numerate and analytic skills will be essential, and the candidate should be comfortable with scripting and programming.

The Hamilton Institute (www.hamilton.ie) is committed to research excellence. These posts offer an exciting opportunity for successful candidates to tackle fundamental research problems within a stimulating multi-disciplinary research environment with state of the art facilities and strong links to the international research community.

MSc Stipend: €21000 (tax free)

To apply, candidates should submit a detailed CV, motivation letter, and the names and addresses of two referees for letters of recommendation to: hamilton@nuim.ie. Informal enquiries to Prof.
Doug Leith (doug.leith@nuim.ie) or Dr. David Malone (david.malone@nuim.ie).
