Almende BV, Rotterdam, offers two MSc-level internships in the field of wireless sensor networks.

The first internship focuses on distributed multi-modal sensor fusion, pattern recognition and machine learning in the field of wireless sensor networks. The internship includes the opportunity to investigate existing algorithms, adapting them so they fit the distributed and resource-constrained nature of wireless sensor networks or creating your own algorithms. Additionally, there is the opportunity to implement the results on an operational WSN framework, and to test it in two use cases in the Dutch research projects ALwEN and STORM.

The second Internship focuses on bio-inspired data diffusion in wireless sensor networks. The internships includes analyzing and possibly enhancing the gossip protocol currently in use in the MyriaNed WSN platform. Also, research can be conducted to different bio-inspired models and algorithms (slime mold, hormone models, swarm intelligence) to create intelligent data diffusion algorithms. Additionally there is the opportunity to test your solution both in a simulator and in real WSN deployments of different sizes.
