PhD position summary/title: PhD Candidate in Nuclear Propulsion (Doktorgradskandidat i kjernefysisk fremdrift på skip)
Nuclear propulsion has been used by navies for more than 50 years, but merchant shipping has not caught on ultimately due to costs. The NuProShip I project is one of the first projects in the world trying to rejuvenate the idea of nuclear propulsion for merchant shipping based on entirely new reactor technologies. These new reactor technologies are so called Generation IV technologies unlike nuclear propulsion today and in the past which are Generation II and III. The project is to complete a concept and feasibility study leading to a follow-up project where the technologies will be developed. However, not all issues are covered in sufficient details.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Candidate in the Area of Self-Sovereign Decentralized Identity and Blockchain Technologies
We have a vacancy for a PhD Candidate in the Area of Self-sovereign Decentralized Identity with focus on Web3 and Blockchain Technologies at the Department of Computer Science. These days, a variety of services are widely available online via various channels like mobile, web, and IoT. This not only provides convenience to end-users but also comes along with risks. Together with a genuine user, there are online users of evil characters such as hackers and mischief-makers who lurk in the shadows waiting to commit fraud, steal someone else’s identity and data. That is why protecting digital assets and services is of paramount concern these days! Unfortunately, online security breaches are increasing more than ever. It is reported that more than 7 million data records are being breached every day and are expected to increase. So, increased reliance on the internet means we have a lot more to lose if something goes sideways. The stakes are raised; we need impeccable, reliable digital security!

PhD position summary/title: PhD Candidate in Machine Learning / Deep Learning for Medical Imaging Purposes
The main goal of this Ph.D. is to extend the RescueDoppler technology with AI-based tools that can give real-time assistance regarding the quality of the chest compressions in the case of a sudden cardiac arrest and detect automatically successful restoration of blood flow. The RescueDoppler system includes a small and lightweight ultrasound probe with a patch for attaching the probe to the neck, an ultrasound scanner, and proprietary software for signal analysis. The technology is operator-independent and does not require ultrasound expertise. However, interpreting the Doppler curves in a stressful situation in the field can be tedious and require experience that is not always available. With the AI tools, the operator will be presented with an easy-to-understand plot that shows the quality of the compressions and is alerted when the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) is detected. The AI algorithm relies on the Doppler spectrum image; even though the AI works on the Doppler spectrum, this is not presented to the operator.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Candidate in Computer Architecture
The objective of this PhD project is to specialize server processor architectures to match application characteristics. Datacenter applications are characterized by massive instruction footprints that frequently stall the core front-end. This project will investigate low overhead instruction delivery mechanisms to mitigate this front-end bottleneck. Datacenter applications offer very limited instruction- and memory-level parallelism which causes core back-end to burn energy on instructions without much performance gain. This project will investigate allocating expensive resources only to performance critical instructions while executing the rest cheaply.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Candidate within Transmission Electron Microscopy at the Department of Physics
With the increasing demand for more powerful and energy efficient computing devices, there is a need to move away from silicon based semiconductors. One alternative is the nanostructure artificial spin ice (ASI), where a large number of nanometer scale magnets is arranged in a lattice sufficiently close to interact with each other. By tuning the size, shape and distance between the magnets the large scale behavior changes, possibly allowing them to be used as in-materio computational devices. However, to properly study magnetic properties of these systems, both the full lattice and individual nanomagnets, there is a need for techniques which can study the magnetic properties at nanometer length scales.

About NTNU- Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway- Official Website
The Norwegian University of Science and Technology is a public research university in Norway with the main campus in Trondheim and smaller campuses in Gjøvik and Ålesund. The largest university in Norway, NTNU has over 8,000 employees and over 40,000 students. NTNU in its current form was established by the King-in-Council in 1996 by the merger of the former University of Trondheim and other university-level institutions, with roots dating back to 1760, and has later also incorporated some former university colleges. NTNU is consistently ranked in the top one percentage among the world’s universities, usually in the 101–500 range depending on ranking.
NTNU has the main national responsibility for education and research in engineering and technology, and is the successor of Norway’s preeminent engineering university, the Norwegian Institute of Technology (NTH), established by Parliament in 1910 as Norway’s national engineering university.
