Welcome to Linnaeus University! A place for knowledge, ideas and development. For growth potential and a belief in the future. In Småland and in the world.

The ubiquity of sensor, computing, communication, and storage technologies provides us with access to previously unknown amounts of data-Big Data. It has revolutionized research communities and their scientific methodologies and innovated the approaches to knowledge and theory building, validation, and exploitation in the Sciences and the Humanities. With the foundation of a Linnaeus University Center on "Data Intensive Sciences and Applications" (DISA, https://lnu.se/disa) in Jan 2017, Big Data has officially become a research profile at Linnaeus University.

The advertised position will be physically placed in the Software and Information Quality group. The research group focuses on how data can be used to improve quality and the development process. Our vision is to provide tools and services, created from data, that can help developers. These tools and services will be based on machine learning, optimization, etc. The research required is highly relevant for both academia and industry, and most of the work will be conducted in collaboration with industry.
