Postdoc position in control of delay systems with application to vehicular platoons.

One postdoc position is available in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, at Technical University of Crete, Chania, Greece. The work will be conducted in the Control Systems Laboratory, under the supervision of Prof. Nikolaos Bekiaris-Liberis. The position is funded by the Hellenic Foundation of Research and Innovation. The researcher can start as soon as possible.

The postdoctoral researcher will conduct research in adaptive/learning control of delay systems with application to control of platoons of connected/automated vehicles. The successful candidates should be motivated and committed to perform research independently, collaborate with the members of the research group, as well as be actively involved in departmental activities.

The postdoctoral researcher should hold a PhD degree in control engineering or applied mathematics or a closely related area. In particular, the postdoctoral researcher should have strong research background and interest in at least one of the following i) nonlinear and adaptive/learning control, ii) control of delay systems, iii) control of vehicular systems/platoons. Good programming abilities are also desirable.

The potential candidates should apply sending to bekiaris-liberis@ece.tuc.gr i) a CV, ii) copy of diplomas and transcripts, iii) names and email addresses of two potential referees, and iv) a brief statement of their research interests and how these are related to the aforementioned research topics.
