The TRISKELL team at INRIA and University of Rennes 1, France invites
applications for a PhD position.
Title :
Dynamic Software Product Lines based on Service-Oriented Architectures
Description:
Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) and Software Product Lines (SPL)
are approaches to software development that both encourage reuse of
existing assets and capabilities rather than repeatedly redeveloping
them for new systems. These two approaches tend to be used in the
context of pervasive applications. The intent is that organisations can
capitalise on reuse to achieve desired benefits such as productivity
gains, decreased development costs, improved time to market, and higher
reliability. However, when SOA are supposed to enable assembly,
orchestration and maintenance of enterprise solutions to quickly react
to changing business requirements, SPLs aim at systematically capturing
and exploiting commonality among a set of related systems while managing
variations for specific customers or market segments. The ever growing
use of Model Driven Engineering (MDE) now makes it possible to handle
such large and complex software constructions at a higher level of
abstraction, so that large scale software manipulations, such as product
derivations or system configurations can be automatically generated from
high level models. To cope with the constantly evolving environment
inherent to pervasive applications, these models will be kept at runtime
to support the continuous adaptation process. This work will investigate
innovative solutions to bridge the gap between SOA and SPL through the
use of MDE to produce self-adaptive pervasive applications.
Working Environment :
The postdoc candidate will work at INRIA in the TRISKELL team. INRIA is
the French national institute for research in computer science. There
are 8 INRIA research centres located throughout France, hosting more
than 200 research teams. The TRISKELL team is located in Rennes.
TRISKELL's research is in the area of software engineering, focusing on
model-driven engineering and software testing. The team is actively
involved in multiple European, French and industrial projects and is
composed of 7 faculty members, 20 PhD students and 4 engineers.
The position is already open and applications will be reviewed until the
position is filled (Deadline for position starting : 02/2012).
Approximate Salary : 1900EUR/month net+ extra
This PhD position will be supervised by : Jean Marc Jezequel
(jezequel at irisa.fr) and Johann Bourcier (johann.bourcier at inria.fr)
