The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) has selected the InnoEnergy consortium to form a Knowledge and Innovation Community (KIC) in the field of sustainable energy. The InnoEnergy consortium is part of the strategic initiative of the European Commission, to bridge the innovation gap in Europe and secure a competitive European leadership in the sustainable energy sector. Our mission is to:
Address long term challenges and identify new opportunities for innovation in Europe
Transfer higher education, research and innovation activities to the business context and their commercial application (create spin-offs, start-ups and SMEs)
The Ph.D. Program runs over four years, with the first year mainly devoted to specialized courses in subject areas and including course modules on management and entrepreneurship. A minimum of 6 months exchange at another partner organization and internships at sponsoring companies are some of the features of the Ph.D. School. All Ph.D. Positions are fully financed by InnoEnergy partners and the EIT. Admission is open to excellent students worldwide through a competitive selection process. Official language of the Ph.D. School is English.

Empa is an interdisciplinary research and services institution for material sciences and technology development within the ETH Domain. Its Laboratory for Mechanical Systems Engineering is looking for strengthening its composite materials development activities and offers a Postdoc position in Carbon Nanotube based Composites.
The work will focus on the development of nano-particle modified fibre reinforced polymer composites by modification of the system with nano-particles, specifically carbon nano-tubes (CNT). The purpose of the project led by the candidate is to improve resin dominated properties of fibre composite materials, like ILSS, toughness and impact resistance. The work will cover aspects such as functionalisation of the fillers, processing issues and characterisation from the nano- to the macroscopic scale.
The ideal candidate (m/f) is a communicative chemist, chemical engineer, material scientist or physicist with a PhD degree. The candidate should bring practical experience in the field of nanocomposites, including the specific characterisation methods, preferably on CNT-epoxy systems. Furthermore, the candidate should already have lead a scientific project.
The position is immediately available and the planned project duration three years. Please send your application including a short statement of research interests, CV, list of publications and names and addresses of two academic references.
For further information please contact Dr. Michel Barbezat, +41 44 823 44 98 michel.barbezat@empa.ch. Also see www.empa.ch/abt117.
Please submit your application online www.empa.ch/jobs.

Research Description
Cloud Computing is a paradigm for enabling remote, on-demand access to a set of configurable computing resources. A Cloud may stand at different levels of the hardware and software stack where: (i) an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud enables access to hardware resources such as servers and storage devices.
(ii) a Platform as a Service (PaaS) cloud allows the access to software resources such as operating systems and software development environment, and
(iii) a Software as a Service (SaaS) cloud is an alternative to classical software applications running locally on personal computers which are, instead, provided remotely by the cloud (e.g. messaging services, document editing services, etc.). Although Cloud Computing provides a means to support remote, on-demand access to computing resources, its ad-hoc management poses significant challenges to the scalability, performance, dependability and economical costs of cloud services.
A differentiating element between Cloud Computing environments will be the quality-of service (QoS) and the service level agreement (SLA) provided by the cloud. However, service composition and cloud elasticity that underlie Cloud Computing make cloud management challenging. The proposed PhD project aims at investigating novel protocols for scalabile and efficient cloud provisioning, while guaranteeing dependability and reducing costs. The project will study an innovative approach that combines control theory techniques with distributed algorithms in order to build self-elastic clouds. Novel models, control laws, and distributed algorithms will be proposed for automated provisioning, configuration and deployment of cloud services to meet SLA requirements, while tackling scalability and dynamics issues.
