The PhD position is linked to the Consistency Checking of Interrelated Software 
Models (CoInSom) project in which HVL is collaborating with FHDW, Hannover 
(Germany) to establish a model-driven framework to strengthen the fusion and 
cooperation of businesses. Migrating interrelated ICT systems is often not 
feasible due to system dependencies, the services that companies provide, and 
the business logic and associated models. The project aims at the development 
of a framework for the definition of languages based on a common graph-based 
structure which can be used to: query interrelated models, express similarities 
between systems represented by these models, and merge the results, impose 
constraints and check consistency of constraints. This way, the vision is to 
open up for providing integrated services on top of existing functionalities in 
the spirit of the service-oriented architecture, which is normally the main 
outcome of cooperation and integration between businesses.

The PhD project will involve investigations into the theory and practice of 
interrelated models and their integration; modelling and simulation languages 
for querying interrelated models, expressing similarities between models, and 
merge the results and check consistency of constraints; construction of 
prototype software tools for the above mentioned languages and evaluating them 
in integration scenarios in companies or public sector systems such as health 
care systems.

The PhD research fellows will be affiliated with the faculty's ICT-oriented 
strategic research programme on ICT engineering (http://ict.hib.no) which 
currently includes 20 professors and associate professors, a large group of PhD 
students, and more than 50 master's students.  The ICT engineering research 
environment has a strong focus on use-inspired and applied research, and 
cooperation with national and international research groups, and with industry 
partners. The research programme form the basis of the newly established PhD 
programme in Computer Science: Software Engineering, Engineering Computing, and 
Sensor Networks. The PhD research fellows will be part of the research group on 
software engineering 
(http://prosjekt.hib.no/ict/research/model-based-software-engineering/)

On January 1st, 2017, Bergen University College, Sogn og Fjordane University 
College and Stord/Haugesund University College merged to form Western Norway 
University of Applied Sciences. With about 16,000 students, it is one of the 
largest higher education institutions in Norway. A broad range of academic 
programmes is offered at Bachelor, Master and PhD levels.
