The resulting solutions will be used on traditional, mobile and touch devices. The tasks of the RA will combine research in techniques for modelling, scheduling and monitoring processes, advancing the state of the art, implementation of the research results and their application to real construction projects. The RA will also contribute to publishing the results and presenting them at workshops and conferences. The ideal candidate would have a PhD in Computer Science and some knowledge of Web application development. We also consider applicants with a degree in Computer Science or a related area. The start is foreseen for August 2017 and the application deadline is 20 April. The working place is Bolzano and the contract is for a full time position for up to three years.
