The Heterogeneous Computing Laboratory at University College Dublin (UCD), as part of the IBM Exascale activity (http://www-05.ibm.com/ie/emerging_business_centre/exascale.html), is seeking a suitable postdoctoral fellow and PhD candidate.
These positions will be co-funded by IRCSET and IBM through IRCSET’s Enterprise Partnership Scheme. Further details on the Enterprise Partnership Scheme can be found at http://www.ircset.ie/Default.aspx?tabid=58. Applicants must meet IRCSET’s eligibility criteria and will be assessed independently by IRCSET.
The Exascale activity will adopt a Stream Computing paradigm and will utilize streaming hardware and techniques – some of which will be developed as part of this activity.
The successful PhD candidate will have a 1st Class honours degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Electrical Engineering. A Masters degree and strong mathematical skills will be an advantage. Ideally, they should be proficient in C programming and should have a working knowledge of parallel computing concepts. Their interests should lie in the software/hardware interface.
For further information, please contact: Dr. Alexey Lastovetsky, School of Computer Science and Informatics, University College Dublin, Belfield, Dublin 4, Ireland, Alexey.Lastovetsky@ucd.ie.
Application Deadline : 30 September 2010
