Call for applications | PhD position @ OpenCEMS Industrial Chair (deadline: June 25th, 2022)<\/span><\/h1>\n

Please, consider sharing this call for postdoc among last-year Master or Engineering students.<\/span><\/p>\n

CONTEXT AND MAIN PURPOSE<\/span>:<\/h2>\n

The Connected Environment & Distributed Energy Data Management Solutions (OpenCEMS) industrial chair addresses the issues that businesses and communities encounter when handling data management in their connected environments. The OpenCEMS research group aims at designing, implementing and deploying software solutions within Small and Large Scale Distributed\/Connected Environments for better data collection\/aggregation, information retrieval, and knowledge extraction.<\/span>

DESCRIPTION OF THE RESEARCH & OBJECTIVES<\/span>:<\/h2>\n

Connected environments are typically defined as physical real world infrastructures hosting sensor networks that record phenomena from the real world. However, the increasing number of sensors in environments leads to a huge increase in data collection, making data retrieval from resources a big challenge. Resource indexing is the process of assigning each device an index. In other words, each device will have knowledge about its location and the zones of other sensors. This implies that sensors, that cannot store the entire environment\u2019s information, will forward the query to another device or to the requested zone.\u00a0 In addition, uncovered zone discovery is essential to reduce time and resource consumption considerably.\u00a0 The global objective of this doctoral fellowship is the design and implementation of the following modules in the OpenCEMS platform: (i) Generate (centralized and distributed) resources index for a connected environment, (ii) Execute different types of queries (projection, selection, etc.) (iii) Implement different discovery protocols while considering resource\/network capacities, and (iv) Deploy an experimental protocol to evaluate the proposed approaches.<\/span><\/p>\n
