Invitation to Research Students

Under my supervision, the following research topics can be pursued leading to an MSc/PhD degree. Details are available on request from: cuneytb@metu.edu.tr

  1. Computer networks and various network protocols
  2. Parallel optimisation algorithms
  3. Studies on variants of the minimum spanning tree problem (MST)
  4. Parallel and distributed graph algorithms (parallel MST, parallel shortest path, etc.)
  5. Embedded systems
  6. Reconfigurable architectures

 

The candidates who would like to carry on research on the above should have

  • a strong interest in algorithm design, networks, graphs, optimisation and parallel computing, as appropriate,
  • a strong mathematical background,
  • a sound knowledge in one of the high level programming languages.
