Annotation

The aim of project is to create a new type of framework for PhD studies whose underlying principles are consistent with current international trends. The project focuses on a highly important topic of parallel and distributed systems. The number of PhD students taking part in the project is 18. The new quality should rise both from scientific and educational experience of the advisory team, and from (an already existing) system of laboratories, seminars, and international contacts. The emphasis is on cooperative and international aspects of PhD study programmes. The project further extends the cooperation among three research groups affiliated at the Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University Brno, the Faculty of Science, Masaryk University Brno, and the Faculty of Information Technology, Brno University of Technology. The current environment for PhD studies existing at all the faculties already meets very good standards. The aim of proposed project is to push this quality to a new level, comparable with the one of international research and educational centers.
