towards future networked systems (www.access.kth.se).

A Ph.D. student position at KTH extends over a maximum of five years and
includes 80% time for research and 20% for department duties, typically
teaching.

The starting dates for the positions are planned for the second quarter of
2010.

Qualifications:
We seek highly motivated individuals holding an M.Sc. degree in computer
science, electrical engineering, or a related area. An applicant must have
excellent academic credentials, a well-documented background in
communication or computing (preferably both), and a proven interest in
applying theoretical results from science and engineering to creating novel
technology. Expertise in some of the following areas is required:
networking, distributed algorithms, stochastic processes, protocol modeling
and analysis, software engineering.

Application:
The application deadline is March 31, 2009. Applications should contain a
letter of presentation with a research statement, curriculum vitae, grade
reports, and references.

For further information, contact Prof. Rolf Stadler (stadler@ee.kth.se;
