Lero, the Irish Software Engineering Research Centre, offers a PhD Studentship in Model-driven Software Engineering as part of the LGSSE initiative. The position is related to the research project on Model-driven Evolution of Variable Software-intensive Systems (ModEvo).

Description
===========
Research Studentships in Model-driven Software Engineering Applications are invited for a funded Ph.D. studentship within Lero at University of Limerick to investigate model-driven techniques for the configuration and evolution of software systems. The project will investigate how the configuration and evolution of software-intensive systems (e.g., all software in an aircraft) can be supported by model-driven techniques, e.g. interactive visual tools, model transformations, and automated consistency analyses.

Essential:
==========
- B.Sc. and/or M.Sc. in Computer Science, Software Engineering or closely related discipline
- Strong Java development skills

Desirable:
==========
- Knowledge in one or more of the following topics: model-driven development, software evolution, software visualisation, software product lines, embedded systems
- Experience in development of Eclipse-based tools.

The project is supported by Science Foundation Ireland under the CSET programme and will be conducted in collaboration with the Rolls Royce Software Centre of Excellence and IBM Haifa Research Labs. It is planned that the successful applicant will undertake a research internship at one of the partners during the course of their studies.

Closing Date
============
Sunday, 31 July 2011.
