PhD in Electrical Engineering

Mobile networks, as a key component of digital connectivity and computing infrastructures, play a crucial role in modern life. With the growing urgency of sustainable design and operation of digital infrastructures, this PhD project will design and develop resource management schemes that enhance the sustainability and efficiency of next-generation mobile networks. The research will focus on optimising the use of network and compute resources in software-defined and virtualised environments, supporting the evolution toward a flexible edge-cloud continuum. The successful candidate will investigate intelligent orchestration and control strategies to enable sustainable mobile networks considering virtual network functions, telco-edge infrastructures, and emerging AI-driven user applications.
