Subject: PhD position: Embedded Squeak and other topic
Hi
Please distribute widely.
The Software Composition Group of the University of Berne carries out
research in various aspects of software component technology and
reengineering. We have now one PhD position to carry out research on
component technology for embedded systems. The work will be funded by
a new IST research project, "PECOS: Pervasive Component Systems" within the European Community's Fifth Framework Programme.
In the past we developed a reengineering environnement in VisualWorks
so working on components does not mean that we are tied with any language.
The research topics include:
- migration strategies towards component technology
- specifying and validating non-functional properties of software
components
- component repositories
- experience with embedded systems
Interested candidates should contact: Oscar.Nierstrasz@iam.unibe.ch
and ducasse@iam.unibe.ch
Concretely the candidate could work on
- meta modeling component in your favorite language
- developing approaches like microSeeker

or Pocket Smalltalk
- or try to see how Squeak could use to experiment with the
idea of having component for embedded systems
