Schedule ID# 1107; Civilian position with US Air Force.
• 0391 Telecommunication Specialist– Seeking those individuals with a Bachelor’s or higher degree in electrical or electronic engineering, mathematics, physics, public utilities, statistics, computer science, telecommunications management, information systems management, business or administration, industrial management, or other fields related to the position to be filled.
Communications/electronics or automatic data processing training in technical institutes or business schools above the high school level or in Armed Forces schools that included advanced instruction in addition to basic courses may be substituted for general experience on a month-for-month basis.
• 0343 – Management Analyst - Successful completion of a full 4-year course of study in any field leading to a bachelor's degree, in an accredited college or university, meets the GS-5 level requirements for many positions covered by this standard.
Others have individual occupational requirements that specify that applicants must, in general, (1) have specific course work that meets the requirements for a major in a particular field(s), or (2) have at least 24 semester hours of course work in the field(s) identified.
Course work in fields closely related to those specified may be accepted if it clearly provides applicants with the background of knowledge and skills necessary for successful job performance. One year of full-time undergraduate study is defined as 30 semester hours or 45 quarter hours.
• 0854/0855 Electronic Engineer- Seeking those individuals with a Bachelor’s or higher degree that included a major field of study or specific course requirements generally as stated in paragraph A in the individual occupational requirements.
• 1550 Computer Scientist– Seeking those individuals with a Bachelor’s degree in computer science or bachelor’s degree with 30 semester hours in a combination of mathematics, statistics, and computer science.
At least 15 of the 30 semester hours must have included any combination of statistics and mathematics that included differential and integral calculus.
• 2210 IT Specialist– Seeking those individuals with a Bachelor’s degree or higher in computer science, engineering, information science, information systems management, mathematics, operations research, statistics, or technology management or degree that provided a minimum of 24 semester hours in one or more of the fields identified above and required the development or adaptation of applications, systems or networks.
Are you interested in creating something exciting that no one has seen before? Do you want to get hands-on experience with a hot new IBM Lotus product, the IBM Mashup Center? Look no further than Lotus U-CRE8! Mashup Mania!
The IBM Mashup Center is a lightweight mashup environment that allows you to transform enterprise, Web, personal and other electronic information into consumable or "mashable" assets, including information feeds and widgets. These assets can then be dynamically assembled, at-the-glass, into new applications that address daily challenges.
From February 1, 2010 thru April 2, you and college students all over the world are invited to create their own mashup using the IBM Mashup Center.
Here are some of the great things you'll be able to do:
• Obtain hands on experience with a leading-edge Web 2.0 product
• Collaborate with IBM Mashup Center experts and other participating students worldwide
• Explore your creative ideas to develop something unique, innovative and useful
Everyone who submits a mashup during the U-CRE8! Mashup Mania event will receive an IBM certificate of participation.
Get bragging rights for your resume! As a participant, you will receive an invitation to post your resume to the IBM Student Opportunity System, a student resume database accessible by thousands of IBM Business Partners and customers worldwide.

Title: Network and Cloud Resource Management Games
Location: To be determined
Abstract:
In emerging settings where selfish users are empowered to make autonomous resource acquisition decisions, resource management must be viewed through a game-theoretic (as opposed to a global optimization) perspective. In this talk, I will present such perspectives in three distinct settings: overlay network creation, cloud resource colocation, and shared bandwidth arbitration.
For overlay networks, I will present “Selfish Neighbor Selection” (SNS) -- a game-theoretic connectivity management framework for folding new arrivals into an existing overlay, and for re-wiring to cope with changing network conditions. I will show that under typical resource constraints, SNS yields efficient Nash-like equilibria. I will present experimental results showing the properties of stable SNS wirings on synthetic and real Internet topologies, as well as results we obtained by deploying Egoist – a PlanetLab SNS prototype system.
For cloud computing, I will present “Colocation Games” (CG) -- an economically-sound framework upon which emerging cloud architectures could be implemented. CGs enable the modeling and analysis of the dynamics that result when selfish parties interact in an attempt to minimize the individual costs they incur to secure the shared cloud resources necessary to support application QoS or SLA requirements. In addition to various game-theoretic results, I will overview implementation considerations as well as results from experimental evaluations.
For shared bandwidth arbitration, I will present “Trade and Cap” (TC) -- an economics-inspired mechanism that incentivizes users to voluntarily coordinate their consumption of a shared resource so as to converge to what they perceive to be an equitable allocation, while ensuring efficient resource utilization. Under TC, rather than acting as an arbiter, service providers act as enforcers of what the community of rational users decides is a fair allocation. In addition to presenting the analytical underpinnings of TC and results from trace-driven simulations, I will briefly discuss implementation considerations for last-mile bandwidth arbitration.
This work was pursued primarily in collaboration with Jorge Londono, Vatche Ishakian, George Smaragdakis, and Nikos Laoutaris.
