Degree Level: Ph.D.

Major(s): Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electronical Engineering

Targeted Skills:

The goal of this project is to apply ontology concepts to design models in the automotive domain.

This position will require:

• a brief literature survey
• identification of main stakeholders in research  community
• evaluation of exiting tools and methods
• understanding ontology concepts (structure, inference, ...)

in order to apply concepts from other domains ( e.g. Internet, data mining) to model engineering.

The tasks will be conducted on concrete examples and existing models.

Research experience in one or more of the following areas is desired:

• Ontologies and data mining
• Design models (ideally for control or automation systems)
• Matlab/ Simulink or similar modelling tools
