The Peer to Peer Networking Group at TU Darmstadt (Germany) is
currently offering fully funded
PhD student positions (BAT IIa [1]).
We are working on decentralized distributed systems (Peer to Peer,
opportunistic-/ disruption tolerant networks) with a special focus on
their robustness to failure and their resilience to denial of service
attacks. The search for new application domains in which these
concepts can help to improve services constantly drives us to tackle
new fields and their problems with flexibility. Some current examples
from our research comprise of cloud computing, emergency first
response, as well as secure and privacy preserving online social
networks, on which we are working at the moment. More information
about us can be found at our website: http://www.p2p.tu-darmstadt.de/
