[apologies if you receive this message multiple times] 1) The School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh invites applications for one post of Research Fellow on the project Compilers that Learn to Optimise (COLO). COLO is an EPSRC funded project in the area of applying machine learning to program optimisation. This project is a collaboration between the Compiler group headed by Dr Michael O'Boyle and Machine Learning group led by Dr Chris Williams. The Research Fellow will be expected to work on developing methods for the following two problems (1) global optimisation methods for searching for the best compiler optimisation off-line, (2) supervised learning for predicting optimal compiler transformations at compile time. You should normally hold a PhD in a relevant area and be capable of developing new theory and contributing to tool development. The fellowship is of twenty-four months duration (in the first instance).
See https://www.jobs.ed.ac.uk/jobs/index.cfm?action=jobdet&jobid=3001119 for further information and the application procedure. The closing date for applications is 16 February 2004. 2) We are also advertising two EPSRC funded PhD studentships on the COLO project. See http://www.dcs.ed.ac.uk/home/mob/phd.html for further information and the application procedure.
