Postdoc - Network Level Power Management for Wireless Sensor Networks, University College Dublin, Ireland
A position for a post-doctoral researcher is now available in the School of Computer Science and Informatics, University College Dublin, Ireland. The studentships are part of a project to research and develop a novel network level power management system for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). WSNs combine processing, sensing and communications into tiny battery powered devices or motes. It is expect that networks containing thousands of low-cost motes will be deployed over wide-areas to provide long-term monitoring of conditions and/or activity. Potential applications include traffic monitoring, precision agriculture, habitat monitoring, building security, waste control and seismic sensing. One of the key limitations of current WSNs is battery lifetime. The project will seek to reduce power consumption at the network-level. The successful candidate will have obtained a Ph.D. in Computer Science, Electronic Engineering, or a related discipline. He/she will have proven technical innovation...
