PhD scholarship (1/1) for the project “Mathematical modelling of
Bluetongue in the Danish population of ruminants”(cattle and sheep).
IMM Graduate School ITMAN would like to invite applications for a
fully funded PhD scholarship (1/1) for the project “Mathematical
modelling of Bluetongue in the Danish population of ruminants” (cattle
and sheep). The PhD is partly funded by the Danish Dairy Board
(Mejeriforeningen).
The project focuses on the use of mathematical models for predicting
the spread of the disease Bluetongue in the Danish population of
ruminants. Bluetongue is a notifiable viral disease affecting cattle
and sheep and is spread between animals by biting midges. The
hypothesis is that the spread of Bluetongue in Denmark can be
predicted by utilising mathematical models, demographic data of the
population of ruminants, and the population of midges. These models
can be used to predict what is likely to happen with the disease
occurrence if various alternative control strategies are adopted (e.g.
vaccination and culling strategies).
The 3 year PhD scholarship should be started as soon as possible after
September 1st 2008. The PhD student will be enrolled at the
Mathematics, Physics and Informatics (MFI) PhD Programme at DTU. For a
general guide to the PhD study at DTU, please see

The principal supervisor will be Håkan Vigre, DTU the National
Veterinary Institute and the co-supervisor will be Lasse Engbo
Christiansen, DTU Informatics.
The application should be addressed to the Head of Department Kristian
Møller, DTU the National Veterinary Institute. The Application Form
and Evaluation Form for the PhD study
(http://portalen.dtu.dk/Studerende/Phd_stud/Skemaer.aspx ) must be
attached.
Acceptance as a PhD student at DTU is subject to academic approval by
the MFI PhD Programme and approval by the funding plan by the Office
for Budget and Accounting, DTU.
Candidates should have a master’s degree in engineering,
mathematics/statistics, biology, or a similar degree with an academic

Beasiswa S3: PhD positions UNESCO-IHE
Beasiswa S3: Three (3) Sanitation Related PhD Positions
PhD positions available at UNESCO-IHE in collaboration with Makerere
University and the Kampala City Council in Uganda
An interdisciplinary research program entitled "*Integrated approaches and
strategies to address the Sanitation Crisis in Unsewered Slum Areas in
African mega-cities (SCUSA)*", funded by the UNESCO-IHE Partnership Research
Fund (UPaRF), will be carried out by UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water
Education (Delft, The Netherlands), Makerere University, and the Kampala
City Council, both in Uganda.
The SCUSA research program addresses one of the most relevant developmental
issues worldwide: a reduction of under-5 child mortality rates due to
water-borne diseases, and malnutrition in low-income unplanned urban
settlements. As such, the project will contribute to the realization of
Millenium Development Goal 7, Target 10 (i.e. to halve, by 2015, the
proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water). The
SCUSA research program has identified three projects, centered around a slum
area of Kampala. To carry out these research projects, three strongly
interdisciplinary PhD positions are vacant.
Project description
The development and expansion of informal settlements in the peri-urban
areas of African cities is widespread, while these cities harbour the
majority of the urban population. Peri-urban areas, or slums, are
characterized by, among other things, poorly constructed houses, poor water
supply and sanitary conditions, and lack or inadequate support services.
Besides the spreading of diseases related to surface water (e.g. malaria),
one of the main problems associated with sanitation and water in peri-urban
areas is related to the pollutant load entering and leaving the peri-urban
catchment, either as surface water or groundwater. This water is polluting
drinking water (with increased incidence of cholera and diarrhoea) or
eutrophying surface water, due to extremely high nutrient fluxes discharged
from the surrounding catchments. As a result, the main research question of
the SCUSA research program is: *How to improve sanitation in peri-urban
urban slum areas?*
Ph.D. project 1: Wastewater and solid waste treatment and reusePh.D. project
2: The socio-economic aspects of improving sanitation Ph.D. project 3:
Hydrology and contaminant transport*The following applies to all 3 Ph.D.
positions:*
- All topics will be carried out in a so-called sandwich construction
with different phases at UNESCO-IHE in the Netherlands and field research in
Uganda (with regular contacts with Ugandan and Dutch supervisors).
- PhD positions are funded with a fellowship for which NUFFIC regulations
apply.
- Starting date: January 1, 2009, for 4 years.
- Qualifications: MSc degree (average mark: 80% or above) in a discipline
relevant to the topic, e.g. environmental engineering, sanitation,
socio-economics of the water sector, water resource economics, hydrology and
water resources.
- The applicant must demonstrate a strong interest and experience in
conducting interdisciplinary research.
- The applicant must be willing to do research in a team, share his
results with the SCUSA research team and advise fellow Ph.D. researchers
when necessary.
- The applicant should be willing to co-supervise MSc research projects.
- The applicant must be fluent in English (e.g. TOEFL paper based score
of at least 550).
- Excellent reporting skills and shown ability to publish in the

Scholarship at Spain For Msc / Phd in Wireless Communications and Multimedia Signalling
MSc/PhD students in Wireless Communications and Multimedia Signalling
Call for MSc / PhD students in the area of wireless communications and
multimedia signalling NeTS Research Group Universitat Pompeu Fabra,
Barcelona, Spain NeTS is looking for students coming from renowned universities from
around the world, with a very good grade record, who have a very high
interest in wireless communications, specially those based on the IEEE
802.11 principles, including sensor, adhoc, infrastructure WLANs and
mesh networks.
We are also looking for students passionate about
multimedia communications in the Internet, and the protocols
associated to it. We seek students with a strong background on
communications networks, coming from electrical engineering, computer
science or related fields. Paramount is a desire to learn and push the
limits of current technology, as well as providing new insight into
today’s and tomorrow’s networks and services.
The accepted candidates will participate in several projects in tight
cooperation with other researchers from our group. Positions available
are:
1 PhD / MSc position in “Next Generation Multimedia Signalling for the
multitechnology, multiservice Internet”. The Internet is undergoing a
dramatic evolution through new architectural paradigms, like the NGNs,
P2Pbased signalling and applications, mobile and wireless access
networks and the like. There is a necessity to design a new set of
integrated signalling protocols, which permit to control the
transmission of multimedia traffic over such heterogeneous networks.
IMS is the current best practice in that area, but its many
shortcomings and high complexity suggest to explore new approaches
that go beyond IMS, like P2PSIP based systems. The goal of this PhD,
thus, is to design, evaluate and standardize new signalling protocols
for the Internet of the future. We offer a three year grant to PhD
students with a MSc already finished. Moreover, for students without a
MsC a four year grant is also possible with the requirement to follow
our master program during the first year.
1 PhD / MSc position in “Reconfigurable, adaptive and selforganized
sensor networks”. Sensor networks are formed by small, inexpensive and
resource limited devices that can interact with the environment
(sensing or actuating) and communicate wirelessly with other devices.
The work will consist in the design and implementation of a complete
new protocol stack based on collaborative and crosslayer techniques,
including power control routing algorithms, reconfigurable PHY/MAC
protocols and adaptive self organized multihop clustering algorithms.
1 PhD / MSc position in “Modeling adaptive traffic flows over capacity
varying wireless mesh networks”. Current WLANs suffer from various
impairments which reduce their ability to carry multimedia flows
satisfactorily. One of them is the intrinsic variable capacity due to
the multiple transmission rates used and caused by the distributed
random access to the channel. The proposed thesis will consider the
definition of a mathematical framework to analyze multichannel
wireless mesh networks, based on the IEEE 802.11s/n prestandard, in
order to optimize the QoS and signalling mechanisms (e.g. based on P2P
paradigms) to adapt properly the multimedia traffic sources (such as
VoIP, video streaming).
How to apply
Please send your full CV, together with your student record (as
appropriate) and a cover letter stating your interests and goals to:
