[TYPES/announce] Vacant PhD Scholarships at IT University of Copenhagen

[Andrzej Wąsowski]

The IT University of Copenhagen has announced vacant PhD scholarships starting 
in February 2009. The full text can be seen at:

Some of these scholarships are partly awarded by the recently granted VKR 
Center of Excellence, MT-Lab (http://www.mt-lab.dk/).

MT-LAB being a cooperative project with researchers from The Technical 
University of Denmark, Aalborg University, and The IT University of Copenhagen, 
will develop powerful computational methods and algorithms for the analysis of 
discrete, stochastic and continuous properties. This will result in new 
methods, techniques and software tools that can be used to guarantee complex 
properties of systems.

We expect that the part of the project primarily carried at ITU will emphasize 
calculi for mobility and analysis of stochastic models. Other inspiration can 
be found at http://www.mt-lab.dk (go to Research Plan).

An application has to contain a detailed project proposal developed by the 
applicant. In our experience it is best, if a prospective applicants contacts 
us directly and collaborates with us on constructing the application.

It is expected that during the project period the phd students will interact a 
lot with the other partners in the project, including longer visits in prof. 
Larsen's and prof. Nilson's groups at AAU and DTU respectively. At ITU the 
project will be placed in the Concurrency and Mobility research group, which 
includes assoc. prof. Jens Christian Godskesen, assoc. prof. Andrzej
Wasowski and assoc. prof. Thomas Hildebrandt, and itself is a part of the 
Programming, Logics and Semantics Group 
(http://www.itu.dk/research/pls/wiki/index.php/Main_Page).

In Denmark a PhD scholarship covers both living expenses (a salary), the 
tuition, and any expenses needed to execute the research project. The deadline 
for applications is on October 10th, at 12:00 CET.
