Research Fellowship & ($30k pa) APAI PhD scholarship in SOA at Swinburne

Postdoctoral Research Fellowship and PhD Scholarship in Service-Oriented
Architectures

The Centre for Information Technology Research (CITR) at Swinburne has the
following two research positions in Service-Oriented Architectures available
immediately:

* A Postdoctoral Research Fellow/Research Fellow (academic level A or B),
* An APAI PhD Scholarship ($30k pa stipend).

These researchers are to join a research project investigating Rich Service
Registries (RSR), funded by the ARC and CA (Computer Associates).

The Rich Service Registries will be the centre piece of future enterprise
information systems deploying the service-oriented architecture. The project
aims to create an extensible framework for rich service registries that
allow an enterprise's IT services to be characterised, located and managed
according to their business and system properties in an intelligent and
dynamic manner. It provides methods, techniques and a software platform for
service modelling, quality/policy-based service discovery through direct and
compositional matching, service lifecycle management, auditing and legal
compliance of services and applications from an enterprise perspective.

The research fellow is expected to play a key role in the project, and must
have a broad appreciation of the project issues as well as in-depth
expertise in some of the key research topic areas. The position is available
for a period of three years.

The PhD candidate is expected to carry out research in one of the project's
key research topic areas. The scholarship is available for a period of three
years, with a high value stipend of $30,000 per year plus other travel and
research support. The applicant must be an Australian or New Zealand citizen
or an Australian permanent resident, and have a good honours (4 years)
degree or equivalent in software engineering, computer science or
information technology.
