Given that, in today’s world, communication networks are ubiquitous and virtually all applications and services are networked, high-performance, resilient, and secure communication networks are essential for a functioning society and economy. The growing diversity of applications —particularly driven by artificial intelligence and big data— places increased and novel demands on communication networks. At the same time, AI also opens up new opportunities for their design. At KIT, Division II —together with the Institute of Telematics (TM) and the KIT Department of Informatics— is shaping these strategically significant topics. In this context, we are establishing aYour tasksResearch:
Your tasksResearch:
You will conduct research on methods, architectures, and protocols for communication networks, aiming for objectives such as very high data rates, low latency, adaptive and efficient traffic engineering, and routing to address the challenges of complex systems—such as the future Internet.
Key Focus Areas:
To achieve your research objectives, you may work on the following specific research areas:
- network architectures and protocols
- programmable, verifiable, and autonomous networks
- resilient and sustainable network systems
