PhD position available
by Serge Stinckwich 19 Jul '10

19 Jul '10

Hi all, i'm looking for a candidate for a PhD position in computer science between France and Vietnam related to disaster management (a very important topic for Vietnam). The description of the subject is below. If you are interested by this position, send me a message ASAP. Best regards, ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IRIT laboratory of Université of Toulouse and UMMISCO research team invite applicants for a PhD. position related to disaster management and computer science. PhD Thesis title: Models/Forms of coordination for crisis resolution: analysis, discovery and efficiency Supervisors' names: Pr. Chihab Hanachi (Université de Toulouse), Dr. Ho Tuong and Dr. Serge Stinckwich (UMMISCO, Vietnam) Scientific domain : crisis management, computer science. Subject In a crisis context (natural or industrial disasters, violence explosion, ...), different actors (e.g. the police, firefighters, NGO) are called to reduce the crisis and stabilize its impact on the real world. Their interventions take the form of operational processes by each actor according to its responsibilities, tasks and resources, each of them exploiting its own information system. The coordination of these actors and their interventions is crucial in order to ease an efficient control and resolution of the crisis. Usually, this coordination may take two different forms: - An explicit coordination provided by a central crisis command center, steering the crisis, which in the French context, for example, may be composed of a prefet (state's representative in a departement) and representatives of institutions involved in resolving the crisis. In this case, coordination is supported by a collaborative process (supported by a set of official plans) to orchestrate the different partners operations, while respecting the autonomy of their actions, according to their expertises and responsibilities. This process is most often adapted to cope with a dynamic, unstable and unpredictable environment, due to the impact and evolution of the crisis, but also to the heterogeneity and multiplicity of stakeholders and their possible geographical dispersion. - Sometimes, especially during major natural disasters, coordination may be implicit (no preset plans, ineffective authorities, ...). Interactions can emerge between several institutions and voluntary organizations, involved in resolving the crisis. In this case, coordination is partly governed by the different actors strategies or personal interests . There is no more a centralized schema. These two forms of coordination may also co-exist and the question of their interaction and coherence is raised. How to take into account emerging social events in predefined formal procedures which did not plan these phenomena ? How to deal with the entrance and departure of uncontrolled actors during the crisis management ? In this thesis proposal, we are interested (research project) by distributed information gathering (testimonies of people, pictures taken by phone, data from sensors, ...) which can be seen as a form of distributed problem solving where coordinated sources of information have to cooperate to form a whole picture of the crisis at given time. The scientific aims of the thesis are the design and implementation of models and algorithms enabling : 1) The analysis of relationships between information collected in the field: facilitation, interference, aggregation, independence (or interdependence), uncertainties, ... It is also necessary to take into account the temporal aspect of information. 2) The identification of formal coordination models dedicated to the crisis resolution (coordination processes, organizational structures and networks of actors, interaction protocols). This step, based on an analysis of the nature of information flows between actors, should allow to identify generic structures that can be formalized into models. 3) The analysis of coordination efficiency. By analyzing actors effectiveness in terms of ressources management and accuracy to represent the reality, we would like to compare the different coordination models. This analysis aims at suggesting process improvements and good practices in terms of coordination. This can be done through simulations using individual-centered approaches.

[Last Call] [JOB] Pharo Engineer at INRIA

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Marcus Denker <marcus.denker(a)inria.fr> Date: Fri, Jul 9, 2010 at 3:53 PM Subject: [Pharo-project] [Last Call] [JOB] Pharo Engineer at INRIA To: "Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr Development" <Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr> Cc: ESUG Mailing list <esug-list(a)lists.esug.org>, smalltalk-research(a)googlegroups.com [REPOST] Please note: DEADLINE 15 July* INRIA RMoD is looking for a full-time engineer for helping with Pharo development. As researchers, we need a really great system to explore new ideas with. The job of the engineer is to help us by improving the infrastructure we use for our work. What this of course means is that it's kind of a cool job: work in a research lab, but no paper writing, no teaching, no administration. In addition: -> live in France (one hour from Paris, 1h20 from London, 35 min from Brussels) -> try a lot of good beers (our office is just 10km from the border to Belgium) -> enjoy french food -> code all the day in Smalltalk and a bit of C >From what the DHR services told us, the salary will depend on years of expertise and diplomas. We can think that 2700 Euros (before final taxes) should be a good working number for a candidate of the experience we are looking for. In France the employer pays already social security and pension. So the salary already includes lots (and lots) of deductions compared to e.g. a german brutto salary. Holidays: 45 days per year (plus standard bank-holidays). Lille is an active city but not expensive (lots of students...), centrally located, with good connections by train to everywhere (including Paris CDG and Brussels airports). The job will be to continue making Pharo better: - better tools - better network support - better compiler infrastructure - improve the VM - help with day-to-day bug fixing and constant improvement Therefore we are looking for a candidate with some years of Smalltalk (possible Pharo/Squeak) background. Duration: 30 months Starting date: October 2010 Location: Lille (no remote job possible) Official Job Description and Application via the INRIA website http://bit.ly/9z42MY Deadline: 15 July 2010 Web-Post of this call: http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/web/pier/blog/2010-06-07 More about: - RMoD: http://rmod.lille.inria.fr - INRIA Lille: http://www.inria.fr/lille/ - INRIA in General: http://www.inria.fr - Engineers at INRIA: http://bit.ly/cLe6q4 - Pharo: http://pharo-project.org - Lille: - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lille - http://www.mairie-lille.fr/en - http://wikitravel.org/en/Lille Do not hesitate to contact us for more information. -- Marcus Denker -- http://www.marcusdenker.de INRIA Lille -- Nord Europe.
