PhD in Joint dynamic routing in wireless, The Hamilton Institute, Ireland

PhD Position: Joint dynamic routing/coding in 802.11 wireless networks

Applications are invited by well-qualified applicants for a PhD position in the area of dynamic routing and coding for 802.11 wireless networks.

Wireless networks are fundamentally different from wired networks in a number of respects. A key difference is that transmissions are inherently broadcast in nature. We are interested in taking advantage of this to develop powerful new approaches for dynamically routing packets through multi-hop wireless networks. By opportunistically exploiting reception of packets at neighbouring stations, initial tests indicate that gains of x5 or greater in network capacity can potentially be achieved. However, it is not sufficient to consider just capacity, but also quality of service and so our interest is in development optimal algorithms that meet specified quality of service constraints. There is an intimate interaction between broadcast transmission and the choice of coding used. Joint design of routing and coding is therefore also expected to play a key role. Fountain codes and related methods, are very natural in this context.

The candidate should hold a BSc in Engineering/CS or a related field, and have strong analytic skills. Some background in networking, optimisation, and/or coding theory is desirable but not essential.

More information on the networking group at the Hamilton Institute is available at www.hamilton.ie/netlab/. The Hamilton Institute 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 facilitiesand strong links to the international research community.

Stipend: รข‚¬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).

These scholarships aare for you

The way to AMINEF in Gedung Balai Pustaka

American Indonesian Exchange Foundation
Balai Pustaka Building, 6th. Floor
Jl. Gunung Sahari Raya No. 4
Jakarta 10720, Indonesia

1. The buses which goes to Senen Bus Station all of them pass through Gedung Balai Pustaka. Especially which route is through Pasar Baru .

2. Bus Transjakarta, from Blok M you have to change the bus 2-3 times.
Way 1 : from Blok M change the bus in Dukuh Atas bus stop to the bus towards Pulogadung, then take a bus in Pramuka bus stop towards Ancol, this bus pass through Gedung Balai Pustaka. The closest bus stop (Budi Utomo) is about 800 meters from Gedung Balai .
Way 2 : From Blok M take the bus in the Harmoni Bus Stop, the bus towards Pulogadung, get down in Senen Bus Stop and walk about 800 meters, or from this bus stop take the bus towards Ancol and get down as mentioned in way 1. About the distance, this two bus stops is about the same. (It is better if you take ojek or bajaj from this bus stop to Gedung Balai Pustaka)

3. If you take taxi with old tariff (TL=Tarif Lama) from blok M with no traffic jam is about Rp. 30.000,00.

4. From Blok M use bus Patas AC 76. Gedung Balai Pustaka is in the right side, after you pass through Depag, and say to conductor "Balai Pustaka"

5. Use a busway from Blok M towards Kota, get down in Sawah Besar bus stop. From here take a Mikrolet M12 towards Senen. After cross road Wahidin and before senen get down and cross the street.
