One scholarship for a PhD project is available within the field of data-management, with a special focus on managing data from multimodal imaging in material-science. he aim of this project is to design, and implement an end-to-end data-storage solution for managing large datasets obtained from multiple imaging sources that are physically distributed across all of Europe. The system should consider data acquisition, archiving, physical distance between user and storage, and preferably energy consumption. The successful project will provide a deep integration with the imaging equipment and hide the data-management complexities from the end-users entirely.
