  • This is a fixed-term position to support two ARC-funded projects, entitled “Congestion Control for an Efficient Internet” and “Mechanism Design for Next Generation Random Access Wireless Protocols”. The first project will develop and analyse new techniques to respond to congestion in the internet. In addition to the traditional aim of balancing the rates of user flows given fixed network capacity, this research will investigate ways in which network-induced energy consumption can be minimized, by exploiting periods of low congestion. This research will fit into both the New TCP project and the GREEN project at CAIA. The second project will explore resource allocation for wireless networks, to provide differentiated service but avoid the common problem of given data users an incentive to claim to be real-time users. This will involve game theoretic analysis, protocol modelling and protocol design. This research will fit into the MAGIC project .
  • Applicants must have a Bachelor Degree in engineering or a related discipline; a research higher degree is highly desirable.
