[DMANET] Three Postdoctoral Research positions: Security, Reliability and Space Resources

The University of Luxembourg offer three competitive postdoctoral research positions. The positions are suitable for experienced researchers, who are ready to think out of the box to tackle fresh problems.

Please find three descriptions below. Two should be interpreted broadly in the scope of a new interdisciplinary master program in Space Resources at the University of Luxembourg. This is part of the initiative of Luxembourg to strategically place itself in an internationally leading role in the exploration and utilization of space resources. The third is in the more general area of security.

The positions also appear here: http://satoss.uni.lu/vacancies/

===--------------

1. Postdoctoral Researcher in Space Informatics (Security and Reliability in Space)

Space system operate under in extreme conditions hence have reliability requirements. Furthermore, as cooperation and competition for space increases, security should also be elevated. The ideal candidate for this position would be able to propose formal methods to improve the security and reliability of space missions.

Start: a.s.a.p.
Apply here: http://recruitment.uni.lu/en/details.html?id=QMUFK026203F3VBQB7V7VV4S8&nPostingID=25417&nPostingTargetID=41541&mask=karriereseiten&lg=EN


2. Postdoctoral Researcher in Space Informatics (Computer Science / Robotics / Telecommunications)

This broader position, also under the Space Resources program seeks a candidate familiar with techniques relevant to the engineering of space systems. Techniques are not limited to techniques for testing, fault-tolerant protocols, coding theory, artificial intelligence, control systems, data management, virtualisation, requirements engineering, runtime monitoring, fault-tolerant hardware. The ideal candidate should take a broad outlook on the problem of how understanding techniques from their area of expertise (computer science, robotics or telecommunications) can contribute to the design of a successful space mission.
