1. Fully Funded PhD Position in energy labeling in modularized software
Summary of PhD Program:
In this project, our aim is to develop energy labels that enable a robust energy-efficiency ranking of web-based software modules. By replacing a module with a more energy-efficient alternative, we hope to improve the overall energy efficiency of web-based systems. To achieve this, we will conduct a case study using a sufficiently large web-based modular software system. We have chosen WordPress as our case study, as it is web-based and each WordPress website is created by selecting a set of modules (plugins and themes) from a catalogue of nearly 60,000 modules.
Application Deadline: 11/6/2023

Summary of PhD Program:
The successful candidate will be responsible for researching humanities-related topics in the context of historical and contemporary pandemics, with an eye towards improving our understanding of the recent human experience with COVID-19. The research will support the center’s ongoing quantitative studies of disease spread and mitigation. This work could involve a close coupling of observational and theoretical research methods, with a solid anchor in methodologies from the humanities.
Ideally, the research is highly relevant to the aims of the PandemiX center and should be in line with ongoing strong research environments in the Department of Communication and Arts. There will be opportunities for international study exchange with relevant colleagues abroad.

6. Fully Funded PhD Position in Digital Society and Trust with Focus on Trust in Online Service Providers
Summary of PhD Program:
The DIS-TRUST project investigates how conditions for interpersonal trust and trust in institutions change in the digital society, how new forms of trust are formed, and what challenges digitalization poses to trust. The project originates in philosophy’s conceptual work with trust and digitalization. The constant digital transformations of social life worlds are studied conceptually and by confronting the conceptual analyses with concrete context embedded case studies. Consequently, DIS-TRUST advances and matures its analyses of trust oscillating within the poles of qualitative empirical research and philosophical conceptual theories.
