PhD Student positions in Bochum

The chair of Embedded Systems of the information Technology (ESIT) does research in the area of new hardware / software systems. The development and the application of new methods for hardware and software realization, as well as the programming, requires the rising complexity of future embedded systems in the information technology. Typical areas of application in the information technology come from the areas of the image processing, measuring technology, mobile communication, control engineering and control technology, Security and many more. In these domains, the demands increase more and more for a huge data throughput with maximum energy efficiency (arithmetic operations / watt). In particular the reduction of power dissipation and improvement of the computational efficiency is one of the most important aspects for mobile systems. This can be reached only by the consequent application of new multicore technologies as well as the use of reconfigurable hardware as for example Field Programmable gate Arrays (FPGA). Here in particular one of the main focuses lies for the institute and additionally the development of own FPGA architectures and their physical realization as well as the practical use.

Currently 3 seats for scientific employees (F/M) with the aim of the doctorate are available. The main focuses of the research subjects are in the areas:

• New development methods, developing tools as well as the hardware of application specific processors and reconfigurable hardware (Field Programmable gate Array / Functional Array) from high level of abstraction level (e.g., architecture description languages)
• Virtualization of heterogeneous hardware in embedded systems: Hardware / software Co-design of the virtualization layer, design of run-time systems / extension of Embedded-Linux based operating systems for a dynamic management of the hardware resources
• System development of heterogeneous and adaptive Multicore hardware with virtual platforms (e.g., Open Virtual Platform, Simics) taking into account modern hardware / software Co-design principles

A pleasant work atmosphere can be found in the institute as well as various possibilities of development expect you during the doctorate. The applicant should have the degree Dipl.-Ing./master from the electrical engineering and information technology.  Experiences in at least one of the research focuses should be available. Experiences with hardware (FPGA, processors), the hardware description language VHDL, C, C ++ as well as Matlab / Simulink are desirable. The institute maintains international collaborations, so that good English linguistic knowledge is necessary. With international publications and presentations, the available network between research groups should be further expanded.

The holders of a position should take part during the doctorate time, beside the scientific activities, actively in the education of students. This occurs through care of HIWI, bachelor and master works as well as the independent development of lectures, exercises and training periods. Also new teaching offers should be provided together with the chair owner.

The position is limited first of 2 years. Lengthening of the employment contract allows a maximum doctorate time of 5 years.

The employment is directed according to the wage agreement of the countries (TV L). The classification occurs by presentation of the personal or agreed conditions in the group E13 of TV L.

Travel expenses for interviews are not refunded.

Should you have interest in the position, send please your application papers by mail in a pdf file until May 15th , 2012 with the usual application papers as well as a statement about your earliest possible entry appointment to
