Research Position in Sensor Network Virtualization

TThe Intelligent Systems Centre (IntelliSys) at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) is working on various R&D issues in sensor networks and cyber-physical systems in order to develop impactful applications for large-scale deployment in Singapore.

We are developing a semantics-based and service-oriented framework for the virtualization of sensor networks, which will enable the seamless interoperability and scalability of heterogeneous sensor node platforms from different commercial vendors.

Currently, our sensor network virtualization framework supports heterogeneous sensor node platforms (e.g. Memsic MicaZ, iMote2, TelosB, IRIS), operating systems (TinyOS, Contiki) and network protocols (IEEE 802.15.4, 6LoWPAN).

We are inviting applications for the following research position.

1. Research Engineer / Research Associate

Responsibilities :

• mplement the sensor network virtualization framework on several existing commercial sensor node platforms.
• Develop novel prototype sensor network virtualization applications.
• Perform extensive testing and performance evaluation of the sensor network virtualization framework.
