Dear all,

Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna in Pisa (Italy) is offering 2 yearly (renewable) research associate positions in the area of "Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning supporting anomaly detection and metric forecasting in data center operations", an industrial research project funded by the Vodafone network operator. In the context of this collaboration, software-based solutions embedding appropriate AI/ML techniques are being engineered to be connected to the data processing pipeline supporting operations within the Vodafone network. The realized components need to be inherently scalable leveraging on cloud computing technologies, having to process data coming from NFV data centers across 12 EU member countries. The resulting system will constitute a valuable element in the decision making process within the Vodafone /Network Virtual Infrastructure Design team/ for operations dealing with resource management, capacity planning and performance troubleshooting. The results of the research are expected to be published in the form of patents and scientific publications at relevant international venues.
