PhD Studentship in the field of computer science and Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden.
Study Subject(s): Functional Programming
Course Level: PhD
Scholarship Provider: Chalmers University
Scholarship can be taken at: Sweden
Eligibility:
-We are looking for a creative person with an excellent Bachelors or Masters degree, and a keen interest in functional programming.
-You should have carried out significant projects in a functional language, perhaps as a Bachelors or Masters thesis.
-We would like to see some concrete evidence of your activities in functional programming.
-For that, you could send us a published paper of your work, which constitutes a considerable merit, an extended abstract, a technical report, or a copy of your bachelors or masters thesis.
Functional programming is enjoying an unprecedented surge of interest, with languages such as Erlang, Scala and Haskell seeing high-profile applications in companies large and small. A major reason is the much improved productivity that software developers can enjoy, by adoptingfunctional programming. With intense competition from emerging economies, productivity improvements are vital if the West is to retain its software industry. We have secured a large, five-year strategic research grant to bring these benefits to two new areas: signal processing and low-level control in the system layer of products such as radio base stations for mobile broadband, and real-time automotive software built around the AUTOSAR standard. Our approach is to combine domain-specific languages embedded in Haskell or Erlang with rapid verification based on property-based testing (QuickCheck) and automated proof tools. Our work is carried out in close cooperation with industry, and has the potential to make a real impact in key industrial sectors.
How to Apply: Online or by Post
Scholarship Application Deadline: 1 September 2011
