PhD Research Positions in Sensor Networks : Continuous Monitoring of
Water Distribution Systems
The Center for Environmental Sensing and Modeling (CENSAM) (http://censam.mit.edu) is an Interdisciplinary Research Group under the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART), with support from the Singapore National Research Foundation (NRF).
CENSAM has initiated a research project on the Continuous Monitoring of Water Distribution Systems, in collaboration with the Intelligent Systems Center (IntelliSys) of Nanyang Technological University (NTU) (http://www.ntu.edu.sg/intellisys).
This project will develop a cyber-physical infrastructure for monitoring water distribution systems to support applications such as hydraulic operations, leak detection and water quality monitoring. The project involves field prototyping and deployment at test sites in Singapore. Please refer to the following website for more information on the project :
