Summary: | The CMU-Portugal Program is a partnership between the Carnegie Mellon University (CMU, Pittsburgh, USA) and the Portuguese Government, aiming at creating top level and internationally recognized education and research programs in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Within the CMU-Portugal Program, CISTER/IPP-HURRAY is involved in a collaborative scientific program that integrates the capabilities of the Carnegie Mellon University, in particular the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department and CenSCIR, and the following Portuguese research institutions: ISR-Lisbon and INESC-ID (affiliated with IST/UTL), CISTER/IPP-HURRAY (affiliated with ISEP/IPP) and the ISQ Group. This collaborative scientific program includes a dual doctoral program in the area of Electrical and Computer Engineering. The main focus of this doctoral program is on Sensing Technologies and Networks for Risk Minimization Systems, with an additional emphasis on their application to Cyber-Physical Systems such as critical infrastructures. This wide area of research includes communication infrastructures (e.g., wireless sensor and ad-hoc networks), hardware/software platforms (embedded real-time and distributed computing systems), sensing and decision systems (signal/video processing, surveillance, robotics and distributed decision systems) and risk assessment. Students will be supervised by two faculty advisors, one from Carnegie Mellon and the other from one of the Portuguese partners. The dual doctoral program is structured so that students spend part of their time at CMU and at one of the Portuguese partner Institutions. This PhD is to be offered by the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), Pittsburgh, USA and by the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), Universidade Técnica de Lisboa (UTL), Lisbon, Portugal. This research partnership has been launched in Portugal between CISTER/IPP-HURRAY, ISR-Lisbon, INESC-ID and ISQ, but it is expected to bring together other leading Portuguese institutions. The following CMU Units are involved: Center for Sensed Critical Infrastructure Research (CenSCIR), Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Department, Computer Science (CS) Department, Engineering and Public Policy (EPP) Department, and Tepper, the CMU Business School. |
