Short Description

As a Ph.D. student, you will develop an approach and tooling for designing and
evolving software architectures for software ecosystems that are capable of
fast, data-driven feedback, to iteratively set up and improve the software system.

Detailed Description

Digitalization already changed our private lives and will soon revolutionize
industrial companies' businesses. Monolithic products provided by a single
company will be replaced by microservice-based platforms that can be flexibly
extended by add-ons of third parties, establishing software ecosystems. Long
term release cycles and business planning will be displaced by agile and
iterative continuous delivery and quick adaptation of software and business
models based on collected customer data and customer co-creation.

Both trends, the setup of software ecosystems and customer-data-driven software
evolution, become more and more established in software-only businesses.
Siemens, as a thought-leader in industrial automation, is committed to bringing
these new modes of thinking to its established industrial businesses, paving the
way to industrial digitalization.

In this context, we are looking for you as a Ph.D. student to address with us
the following topics for software architectures of Siemens Business Units:

- Design of software architectures to quickly validate or disprove new features
  and software ecosystem business ideas.
- Integration of fast feedback loops and customer-data-driven software evolution
  approaches into existing industrial software architectures.
- Iterative derivation and evolution of software architectures for software
  ecosystems.

The definite research topic will be identified in joint cooperation with the
individual candidates.
