Research Vacancies

We have a wide range of vacancies for postdoctural researchers and Ph.D. candidates in CTVR here in Trinity College, University of Dublin, Ireland.

Our work focuses both on wireless and optical networks. The common theme throughout is reconfigurable and cognitive networking.

On the wireless side we have an interest in cognitive radio, software radio, dynamic spectrum access, technology and service neutral regimes, advanced commons regimes, coexistence and inteference mitigation techniques, spectrum trading, self-organising network, regulatory policies and other topics. We work at the PHY, MAC and network layers. We take a `theorise/simulate/build' approach to our work and have designed sophisticated platforms on which to test our ideas. We work on general purpose processors as well as Cell BE and FPGA platforms.

On the optical side we focus on optical IP switching and what we term ad hoc optical networking. We are interested in dynamic provisioning of light paths in a distributed and flexible manner. On the optical side we explore ideas on a specially designed optical testbed.

There are a large number of outstanding problems in these fields. We seek bright and passionate people who wish to join our team (current size of team is 20). We are intested in people who have Engineering and Computer Science backgrounds suited to the above topics but also welcome those with interests in policy, economics and other areas of relevance.

The group also engages in commercial activity and has serious interest in start-ups and technology transfer in general. As a result there are also opportunities for postdoctural level researchers and others to focus partially or exclusively on commercial activity.
