One Senior Post-Doctoral position is available in the area of deriving PERceptual Confidence in cooperative Vehicular Environments (PERCeiVE project) (24 months) Project Title:  PERCeiVE (deriving PERceptual Confidence in cooperative Vehicular Environments) (CONNECT2-T4) Applications are invited for a Senior Post-Doctoral Researcher position within the School of Computer Science & Information Technology. External appointments made directly to Senior Post-Doctoral research positions must have previous post-doctoral experience of at least 3 years.   PERCeiVE (deriving PERceptual Confidence in cooperative Vehicular Environments) (CONNECT2-T4) will address the challenge of determining believe/confidence in cooperatively shared environmental perception data so that it can be trusted to make a control decision. Cooperative or collaborative perception is widely viewed as the panacea to truly realise autonomous driving, particularly in complex urban environments. The challenge of deriving strong confidence/belief in a vehicle’s perceived environment based on evidence (local & shared sensor readings) is under addressed, as such shared sensor readings may be subject to spatial correlations, occlusions, limited perception range, or sensor specific detection inaccuracies e.g. under certain weather conditions.

Congratulations to Diana Gabriela Morillo Fueltala (“Gabriela”), who successfully defended her PhD thesis on 15th July 2024. Thesis Title: Detecting Targeted interference in the Internet of Things The thesis proposed a novel technique for an IoT device (that uses cellular Narrowband IoT communications) to detect attacks which target certain important system messages. Supervisor: Prof. Utz Roedig Co Supervisor: Prof. Dirk Pesch Internal Supervisor: Prof. Cormac Sreenan External Examiner: Prof Jorge Sa Silva from the University of Coimbra The recommendation was Awarded on condition of minor amendments.

One Post-Doctoral position is available in the area of Augmented Reality (AR) (24 months) Project Title:  Optimised Resource Management for Multi-user Augmented Reality Systems  (CONNECT2-T4) This Post Doctoral Researcher position provides an excellent opportunity to join a dynamic and inclusive research team at University College Cork (UCC), working within the large-scale national CONNECT research centre, hosted by UCC’s new nasc research centre and under the supervision of high-profile professors and academics in the area of the networking.
