We are looking for a Research Fellow or Research Associate to
work on an ASTAR funded project “An Integrated and Adaptive Simulation-Based
Decision Support Framework for High-Tech Manufacturing and Service Networks” in
which
- discrete event simulation model components developed using
Commercial Simulation Packages (CSPs) can be plugged together and interoperated
in a standardised Plug & Play manner,
- business application components can be re-used in simulation
environments for modelling of complex operations with sufficient fidelity,
- simulation experiments can be conducted with maximum degree
of concurrency and minimum degree of redundancy on a Computing Grid with
co-ordinated, seamless and secure access,
- simulation analysis tasks can be assigned to Grid resources
in an optimised manner, depending on the underlying domain-specific problem,
- simulation models can interact with the systems they
represent in a symbiotic manner such that (i) they can be adapted to changes in
the real system with high degree of automation, and (ii) policies in the real
world can be re-optimised taking into account these changes.
This project is a collaboration with the Singapore Institute
of Manufacturing Technology (SIMTech). Together with a team of other research
staff and students, the candidate will carry out research and development to
help achieve the aims stated above.
Requirements
- A PhD or Master degree in Computer Science or related fields
- Strong programming skills in C++ and system development
- Strong research ability and background in Discrete Event
Simulation (DES) and related technologies
- Good written and oral communication skills
Remuneration & Benefits
Successful candidates can expect a competitive salary and
benefits
Term of Appointment
The appointment can commence anytime and will be initially
for one year, with possibility for extension up to two additional years.
