c*******b 发帖数: 33 | 1 In part for an expected project in the National Science Foundation Platforms
for Advanced Wireless Research (PAWR) program https://advancedwireless.org
/about-pawr), we expect to have Ph.D., Postdoc, Researcher, Software
Engineer, and Program Manager positions in software-defined wireless and
edge systems for rural broadband, 5G and Beyond. One mission of the project
team is to establish a large-scale, first-of-its-kind wireless living lab
encompassing bleeding-edge technologies and innovation platforms (e.g.,
those for free-space optical communication, mmWave, massive MIMO, LEO satcom
, URLLC, communications and networking softwarization, AR/VR, and precision
agriculture) and to collaborate with a broad ecosystem of public-private
partners in advancing the frontiers of wireless systems, edge/cloud
computing, and rural broadband.
For the Ph.D. positions, background in computer science, computer
engineering, and/or electrical engineering is required, and experience in
systems building, mathematical modeling, and research will be a strong plus.
For the "Postdoc, Researcher, and Software Engineer" positions, prior
systems building experience in wireless, networks, and/or distributed
systems is invaluable. For instance, qualifications in any of the following
areas are strong pluses:
- Hands-on experience in designing, developing, deploying, and operating
field-deployed wireless, network, and/or distributed systems;
- Hands-on experience with cellular network platforms (e.g.,
OpenAirInterface, srsLTE, ONF SD-RAN and COMAC), edge/cloud computing
platforms (e.g., OpenStack, Kubernetes), SDN, and VNF;
- Hands-on experiences in edge/cloud systems management, virtual machines/
containers, Linux systems administration, shell scripting, etc;
- Capability of building systems prototypes based on reference publications
and/or open-source software;
- Programming skills: Python, Web, C, C++, Java etc;
- Knowledge of wireless systems, networked/distributed systems, operating
systems, virtualization, systems and network security;
For the "Program Manager" position, key responsibilities include project
management and stakeholder engagement. Prior experience in managing
technology projects (especially those in wireless, networking, software, and
/or IT) and/or public-private partnerships is invaluable. Project Management
Professional (PMP) certification is also a plus.
Interested candidates are encouraged to email [email protected] with
relevant background information (e.g., education, transcripts, experience,
and/or publications) and the names of up to three references. Applications
will be considered until the positions are filled. Candidates are also
welcome to contact any of the following Team Leaders with specific roles in
the involved projects:
- Prof. Hongwei Zhang, [email protected], https://www.ece.iastate.edu/~
hongwei/ (Overall project leadership, URLLC, SDR, 5G and beyond systems,
cyber-physical-human systems)
- Prof. Mai Zheng, [email protected], https://www.ece.iastate.edu/~mai/ (
Cyberinfrastructure software systems, edge/cloud computing, storage systems)
- Prof. Yong Guan, [email protected], https://www.engineering.iastate.edu/~
guan/ (Networks and distributed systems, security)
- Prof. Daji Qiao, [email protected], http://home.eng.iastate.edu/~daji/ (Wireless networking, security)
- Prof. Ahmed Kamal, [email protected], https://www.ece.iastate.edu/~kamal/
(SDN, wireless networking)
The work is expected to be conducted at the Department of Electrical and
Computer Engineering in Iowa State University (ISU), U.S.A. ISU is a major
research university, and the Department of Electrical and Computer
Engineering at ISU has over 100 years of rich and distinguished history. (
See https://web.iastate.edu/sites/default/files/about/docs/facts/facts.pdf
and http://www.ece.iastate.edu/the-department/history/) For instance, individuals from the department have pioneered the world's first electronic digital computer, encoding process for fax machines, world's first portable phone, medical ultrasound technology, first handheld scientific calculator, and infant respiratory augmentor. As a 400+ acre development and having over 96 tenants employing over 2,250 people, the ISU Research Park http://www.isupark.org/ hosts a vibrant startup community as well as R&D branches of major companies such as John Deere. In addition, many other established and start-up companies (e.g., Collins Aerospace, Emerson) are within 100 miles from ISU campus and are leaders in wireless communication and networking, AR/VR and control systems, and their applications in various domains. ISU campus also offers a great life experience in the City of Ames, Iowa http://www.thinkames.com; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ames,_Iowa). |
