PhD Scholarship in Australian University

About the scholarship
This scholarship is funded by an Australian Research Council (ARC)
Linkage-Projects grant from Griffith University, and its objective is to
develop methods for building and testing large-scale dependable systems,
and Systems of Systems. The aim of this research project is to develop an
effective tool-supported method for re-engineering obsolete systems using
Behaviour Engineering. The method should establish the integrated
behaviour of obsolete systems as represented by behaviour trees,
composition trees and their interfaces so that they may be integrated into
new systems that are also modelled using behaviour trees and composition
trees.
This project will involve a challenging combination of theoretical
development, tool development, and working collaboratively with our
partner organisations: the University of Queensland, Raytheon Australia,
and KJ Ross and Associates.
Scholarship value and duration
This scholarship will provide support for three years full-time study for
a candidate working towards a Doctor of Philosophy degree. The value of
this scholarship is $AUD 27,222 (per annum). The candidature is to be
based at the Nathan Campus of Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia.
