Dear Members, Please disseminate this call within your contact list to everybody who might be interested in it.
*********** [Apologize for cross posting] WSN4QoL (www.wsn4qol.eu) is an Industry-Academia Partnerships and Pathways Marie Curie Project (FP7-PEOPLE-2011-IAPP, 10240021) that aims at bringing together experts from industry and academia, with the goal to design innovative Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technologies for a more efficient pervasive healthcare system. The project is based on the collaboration of three partners, one University (Technical University of Catalonia-UPC-BarcelonaTECH), a private company specialized in healthcare provisioning (VIDAVO) and a spin-off company with expertise in testbed implementation of wireless protocols (WEST). WSN4QoL aims to build a bridge between academic and industrial research, by establishing a network of scientific collaboration between experienced and new researchers with advanced training opportunities. JOB POSITIONS The WSN4QoL offers one position in WEST Aquila s.r.l.

The selected candidate will be involved in the design of communication protocols, distributed localization and energy-efficient algorithms based on cooperative network coding for wireless sensor networks. A good knowledge and experience in embedded wireless sensor networks programming (e.g., under TinyOS or Contiki) and discrete event network simulation (e.g., using OMNET++, NS2/3) is required. Knowledge of RF wave propagation and network planning simulation tools (e.g., AWE WinProp) is appreciated. ELIGIBILITY • The ER must, at the time of selection, be in possession of a doctoral degree or have at least four years of full-time equivalent research experience and demonstrate capacity of carrying out innovative research independently. • The ER must fulfill the mobility requirements of the People program. DURATION AND BENEFITS The fellowship is awarded for a period of 18 months. The researchers will have a regular contract with the same rights and obligations as any other staff member of the host institution. Candidates should start within 2 months of the acceptance of the fellowship, preferably not later than May 1st 2014. Marie Curie IAPPs provide competitive financial support to the ERs including a competitive monthly living and mobility allowances. HOW TO APPLY Application Deadline: 24/03/2014 To apply, please send by email: • a cover letter detailing your suitability for the position in question. • a detailed CV. • the name and address of at least two referees to support your application.
