CeTI’s cen­tral vision is to enable humans to inter­act in quasi real-time with cyber-phy­si­cal sys­tems (CPS) in the real or vir­tual world over intel­li­gent wide-area com­mu­ni­ca­tion net­works. Such advan­ces go far bey­ond the cur­rent state-of-the-art approa­ches in com­pu­ter and engi­nee­ring sci­en­ces: intel­li­gent com­mu­ni­ca­tion net­works and adap­tive CPS for quasi real-time co-ope­ra­ti­ons with humans require online mutual lear­ning mecha­nisms, which are cru­cial chal­len­ges. To tackle these chal­len­ges, CeTI will con­duct uni­que inter­di­sci­pli­nary rese­arch and will address major open rese­arch topics in key areas of the com­ple­xity of human con­trol in the human–machine loop, sen­sor and actua­tor tech­no­lo­gies, soft­ware and hard­ware designs, and the com­mu­ni­ca­tion net­works as the basis for several novel use cases grou­ped in medi­cine, indus­try, and the Inter­net of Skills.
For the rea­li­sa­tion of ultra-reli­able low-latency com­mu­ni­ca­ti­ons requi­red by the Tac­tile Inter­net, quan­tum tech­no­lo­gies have been pro­ven to be necessary to go bey­ond the intrin­sic limi­ta­ti­ons of clas­si­cal tech­no­lo­gies.

Descrip­tion: The focus is on the inte­gra­tion of quan­tum resour­ces/tech­no­lo­gies in the Tac­tile Inter­net to col­lapse and avoid some intrin­sic trade-offs of clas­si­cal tech­no­lo­gies. Espe­ci­ally, the work is on achie­ving low-latency, and high resi­li­ence and relia­bi­lity. This should start from the prac­ti­cal/infra­st­ruc­tu­ral aspects for the quan­tum tech­no­lo­gies to be inte­gra­ted in the archi­tec­ture of the Tac­tile Inter­net. This can include app­li­ca­ti­ons for secu­rity, enco­ding of human sen­so­rial data (audio­vi­sual and hap­tics) and dis­tri­bu­tion of rand­om­ness. Cur­rent quan­tum tech­no­lo­gies can­not satisfy data rates, latency, and sustai­na­bi­lity. This means that care­ful design is necessary for under­stan­ding the ways to make quan­tum resour­ces seam­lessly app­li­ca­ble in the Tac­tile Inter­net.

uni­ver­sity and PhD degree in phy­sics, mathe­ma­tics, or equi­va­lent; strong pro­gramming skills are highly recom­men­ded. Know­ledge of quan­tum mecha­nics and focus on expe­ri­men­tal phy­sics is also an important metric. Can­di­da­tes should be pro­fi­ci­ent in Eng­lish and have good oral and writ­ten com­mu­ni­ca­tion skills.
