General information about Malmö University
Since its inception in 1998, Malmö University has grown into the country's eighth largest institution of higher education with 25 000 students. Its education and research programmes are distinguished by their multidisciplinary, problem-oriented approach and social relevance. The university offers students a range of educations in five faculties: Culture and Society, Education and Society, Health and Society, Odontology, and Technology and Society.

The Faculty of Technology and Society
The Faculty of Technology and society (TS) offers educations and research in computer science and media technology as well as engineering, natural sciences and applied mathematics. A characteristic of our research and teaching is the engagement of companies and other organizations as active participants.

The Department of Computer Science and Media Technology
At the Department of Computer Science and Media Technology, currently around 70 lecturers, researchers and professors from 20 different countries are employed.
At the department, the research is devoted to the digitalization of our society, and a special area of attention is the Internet of Things, where we mainly investigate the usefulness and human use of the connected devices in our surroundings. Other research areas that our researchers investigate are, e.g., software engineering, intelligent transport systems, and computational media. Apart from a strong cooperation with the industry and with several research organizations, such as the Internet of Things and People Research Center, Software Center, and the Swedish Knowledge Center for Public Transport, our researchers actively take part in research projects with universities around the world.

Job description and responsibilities
The position involves participation in research projects within the Internet of Things and People (IoTaP) research center (iotap.mau.se). The Internet of Things (IoT) enables the objects in our environment to sense, act, and share information. In order to develop successful IoT systems it is important to address several, possibly conflicting, quality characteristics such as, performance, reliability, usability, security, and maintainability.

This position concerns mainly research in the use of simulation to evaluate IoT system designs with respect to multiple quality characteristics in a systematic manner. The research will be carried out in application areas, such as transportation, health, and smart buildings and cities, often together with external partners.

Qualification requirements
Successful candidates for the position must possess a PhD degree in Computer Science, or related area. The candidates must have completed their degree within three years before the application deadline. Candidates who have completed their degree more than three years ago should receive equal priority if there are special reasons. Special grounds include leave due to sickness or trade unions and student organization work, parental leave or other similar circumstances.

Assessment and selection criteria

• demonstrated ability to perform research on the systematic design, conducting, and analysis of simulation experiments
• demonstrated ability to perform applied research together with external partners
• experience from multi-agent-based simulation applications, especially in transport, logistics and/or IoT
• demonstrated analytical and communication skills

Candidates for this position will be assessed on their level of skills and proficiency as described in the above qualification requirements and in relation to how the candidate fits the profile for the position regarding research, teaching and other relevant experience. In addition, consideration will be given to how the applicant's experience and skills complement, strengthen and offer the potential to develop research and education at the department.
