发帖数: 33 | 1 Dear Prospective Students,
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Wayne
State University (a Research-I university, the highest rating issued by the
Carnegie Foundation), USA. I am looking for talented students to join my
research program, and I am writing to announce the Ph.D. positions that will
become available in my research group in fall 2011 or fall 2012.
Our research explores new theories, methods, and systems building-blocks for
addressing dynamics and uncertainties in networked systems that invovle
wireless networks, sensor networks, embedded networks, and the Internet.
Presently, with support from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and
industry, we are especially interested in the modeling, algorithmic, and
systems issues in wireless, vehicular, sensor, and embedded networks. For
instance, we investigate field-deployable mechanisms for reliable, real-time
, and secure wireless networking, and, as a part of the NSF GENI program, we
develop the theoretical and systems foundations for experimentation and
service provisioning in federated, networked sensing. Our work has also
provided foundational components for several large scale wireless network
systems including the NetEye experimental infrastructure (which has 130 IEEE
802.15.4 nodes and 15 802.11b/g nodes) and the DARPA sensornet project
ExScal (which, with its 200-node 802.11b mesh network and 1,200-node mote
network, was the world's largest wireless sensor network and 802.11b mesh
network deployed at its time). For more information about our research,
please visit my webpage at http://www.cs.wayne.edu/~hzhang/.
By focusing on high-quality research, and by collaborating with other
research groups in academia (e.g., Ohio State University, Michigan State
University, and The University of Texas-Austin) and industry labs (e.g.,
Ford Research, GM Research, and Motorola Mobility), our research program
provides students with access to world-class facilities, real-world
experience, and ample opportunities of contributing to the research
community. Students in our research group will be supported financially in
various forms, such as Fellowship, Graduate Research Assistantship, and
Graduate Teaching Assistantship. Being in a strong department at an urban
research university, you will also have a great life experience on campus
here at the cultural center of Detroit, Michigan. (On a related note, The
Scientist has recently ranked WSU as one of the best academic institutions
to work in USA.)
As a part of my research effort, I am currently looking for talented
students to join my research program as Ph.D. students in fall 2011 or fall
2012. If you plan to apply for a Ph.D. position in my group, I will expect
you to have strong academic background, to be self-motivated and goal-
oriented, and to take initiative in executing research plans. Experience in
systems building and mathematical modeling, experience in original research,
and/or a Master degree in related fields (e.g., Computer Science, Computer
Engineering, Electrical Engineering) will be a big plus.
If you are interested in working with me as a Ph.D. student to conduct high-
quality research, please feel free to contact me and share with me your
background, career plan, and expectations for Ph.D. study. I will call or
email you if there is a good match between us.
Thanks and best wishes.
