20th November
Hewlett Packard (HP) invites university students to apply for three 2008 Summer Studentships, worth approximately $5000 each. The aim of the studentships is to encourage high achieving students to extend their research knowledge and/or development experience. HP is a world-leading solutions provider. Such an opportunity will enable the selected students to gain valuable experience while working on leading-edge HP innovations alongside the company’s talented researchers, developers and business managers. At the end of the studentships, the students will have developed relationships with key HP personnel, experienced life as an HP employee and gained knowledge of HP systems and technologies.
The following Summer Studentship projects are available:
Positions One, Two and Three – National Identity System Development
The National Identity System (NIS) is Hewlett Packard’s answer to the growing requirements for secure and trustworthy credentialing. There are several key developments required as part of the system to further enhance a flexible framework capable of meeting the demands of enterprise customers. The NIS enrolment client supports many device types from fingerprint scanners, signature capture, facial imaging capture, biometric quality assessments, document capture and card readers. The need to support these devices is one of the key features of the system.
Position One
This role requires an individual to research the current state of knowledge (globally) with respect to the usability, accessibility and acceptability of biometric identification systems. Activities will include:
Definition of a research plan to tackle this subject
Conducting the research
Preparing a report on findings
Delivering a presentation of key findings and implications for HP's national identity solutions
Identifying next steps for designing the user experience of national identity systems
This role could be used as the foundation for a Masters or Doctoral Research project in the user experience design field. Ideal candidates will be from a human science discipline such as Psychology, User Experience Design, Anthropology or Ergonomics.
Position Two
The role will comprise of working within the global NIS team and will focus on:
Implementation of new devices and new technologies
Building on the NIS provider plug-in model using hardware specific software development kits
Development using C#.NET wrapper
Testing the devices to ensure compatibility with the system and adding new functionality to the existing device plug-ins.
The role will provide exposure to best-in-class implementation of a credentialing solution and will enable the candidate to interact with a global team focused on the development of NIS. Candidates will ideally have a background in security, computer science, or management information systems.
Position Three
This position will focus on the development of a pre-enrolment website. The role will therefore involve:
Development using .NET and AJAX
Integration and creation of mashups using Virtual Earth
Interface realisation using Microsoft Silverlight
Integration with third party web services
The role will provide exposure to best in class implementation of a credentialing solution, and will enable the candidate to interact with a global team focused on the development of NIS. Candidates will ideally have a background in user experience design, computer science, management information systems or engineering.
Roles & projects may be subject to change.
