Descripción de la oferta de trabajo:
If you are interested in laying the foundation for making ICT-based climate improvements, this position may be right for you. At DTU Electro and DTU Sustain you will work towards a greener world, by enabling the development of green ICT technologies. ICT is heralded as a key to ensure the green transition, and the tool developed through this PhD project will be the first of its kind and could play a vital role in ensuring that ICT solutions are employed for a greener future within the requirements of absolute environmental sustainability
. You will be interacting with leading researchers in the field of communications and sustainability, and with a broad range of industrial and public entities, who all have a keen interest in the progress of the project.
Responsibilities and qualifications
This PhD-project will develop detailed models of the energy consumption of communication networks, evaluations of the used hardware and software, and modelling the absolute environmental sustainability impact based on life cycle assessment.
The PhD project will investigate the life cycle emissions of the communications infrastructure and combine the studies of communications and quantitative sustainability assessments. The PhD will investigate the production and installation of a network infrastructure regarding the choice of materials, installation methods of communication links and the depreciation of the asset emissions. Furthermore, the raw material efficiency during the use stage of networks will be investigated.
ICT is heralded as a key to ensure the green transition, and the tool developed through this PhD project will be the first of its kind and could play a vital role in ensuring that ICT solutions are employed for a greener future within the requirements of absolute environmental sustainability.
