1/2
PhD in Computer Science, SAP Technology Research in Zurich,
SwitzerlandPURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
============ ========= =
SAP Research Centers in Zurich and St. Gallen support SAP's long-term strategythrough technology research. Located to the campus of ETH Zurich and University of
St. Gallen (HSG), the SAP Research Center in Zurich focuses on application- oriented
research in the areas of Smart Items and Enterprise Service Architectures. This
combines SAP's technological know-how with the expertise of ETH Zurich and the
leading business school of St. Gallen.
The objective of the EU-funded research project 'GEYSERS' (Generalised Architecture
for Dynamic Infrastructure Services;http://www.geysers.eu) is to bring cloud
computing to the next level by designing and implementing a novel optical network
architecture able to support 'Optical Network + Any-IT' resource provisioningseamlessly and efficiently (also covering the aspect of energy efficiency). In other
words, 'GEYSERS' aims to come up with a holistic approach to cloud computing that
enables service providers to provision services composed from various resources
ranging from 'classic' cloud resources such as computing power and storage space as
well as network and application resources through an end-to-end management
framework.
SAPs contributions to the GEYSERS project include:
- Business scenario and requirements engineering
- Architecture and design definition and validation
- Testbed design and implementation, proof-of concept
- Internal transfer projects
