===============================================================
        POST DOC POSITION WITHIN UBIQUITOUS COMPUTING
===============================================================

KEYWORDS: ubiquitous computing, pervasive healthcare, human-computer
interaction

A two-year post doc position within ubiquitous computing and pervasive 
healthcare is available at the pIT laboratory at the IT University of 
Copenhagen (ITU). See 

                       http://www.pit.itu.dk/

The position is associated with the MONARCA project. The goals of the 
MONARCA project are to develop and validate solutions for multi-parametric, 
long term monitoring of behavioral and physiological information relevant 
to bipolar disorder. It will combine those solutions with an appropriate 
platform and a set of services into a system for management, treatment, 
and self-treatment of the disease.

The main focus for the post doc is to solicit requirements for the system 
and to engage in a user-centered design process of the system including 
its functional architecture and user interfaces. This will be used as a 
reference model for the specification development and validation of the 
final MONARCA system. The methodology employed will be user-centered design, 
including user studies, design, prototyping, system implementation, and user 
evaluation. Focus is on all users of the system, including patients, relatives, 
caretakers, clinicians, and medical staff.

The position requires a strong research background in user-centered design 
methodologies as well as skills for implementation of the design on mobile 
technologies like smart phones. Scientifically, the position requires a 
strong background in human-computer interaction (HCI), computer-supported 
cooperative work (CSCW), ubiquitous computing, and/or software engineering.

MONARCA is an EU-funded STREP project. The candidate will help manage the project 
with respect to the work done by ITU, which entails close cooperation with the 
other partners in the project. In addition, 1-2 PhD students will be associated 
with the project at ITU, and the candidate have the opportunity to be part of 
supervising these students.
