[DMANET] PhD position on Formal Methods for Multi-agent Systems at TU Wien (Vienna University of Technology)

There is an opening for a fully funded research assistant position (PhD
student) at the Formal Methods in Systems Engineering group at TU Wien,
Vienna, Austria. The successful candidate will be supervised by Prof.
Florian Zuleger, and co-supervised by Benjamin Aminof, PhD.

The proposed research will apply formal methods (logics and automatic
methods enabling temporal and strategic reasoning) for the verification and
synthesis of multi-agent systems and their interaction with realistic
environments. The work has strong connections to artificial intelligence,
distributed computing, and mobile agents/robots.

The position is available immediately, a starting date until Fall 2019 is
intended. The position is for 3 years.

APPLICATION

The application should include the candidate's CV, an abstract of their
diploma/masters thesis, a short motivation letter, and two letters of

recommendation can also be sent directly). The application should also
mention possible starting dates and should be sent to zuleger@forsyte.at.
Informal inquiries with Prof Zuleger are welcome. A first screening of
applications will start on May 6, 2019.
