Mälardalen Real-Time Research Centre (MRTC) Mälardalen University, Sweden
Dear colleague, MRTC is offering two positions in Computer Science: 1) Postdoctoral Research Fellow Position, specializing in Multi-Core Real-Time Systems 2) PhD Student Position, specializing in Many-Core Real-Time Systems MRTC is Sweden's largest and most prominent environment for embedded and real-time systems research. Located at Mälardalen University, Västerås, from its inception in 1999, MRTC has grown from one professor, seven senior researchers, and some 15 PhD students to its current size with 10 research groups, including 10 full professors, 5 adjoint and guest professors, 20 additional senior researchers, and some 50 PhD students. Despite its size, MRTC has a focused research agenda targeting various aspects of real-time systems and embedded software development. MRTC is a nontraditional academic research unit with a unique fusion of industrial relevance and academic excellence. The two open positions are located in the CORE research group at MRTC: http://www.mrtc.mdh.se/index.php?choice=research_groups&id=0023 The Postdoctoral Research Fellow position is for 1 year full time, with the possibility of extending the position with one more year. A Swedish PhD Student position is 4 years full time (often arranged 5 years at 80% of research and 20% of department duties). Both positions are with good salary and excellent conditions to conduct research. For more information about these positions, please contact Thomas Nolte ([email protected]). To apply, please visit "Job Opportunities" (positions 37/13, and 38/13) at www.mdh.se (direct link: http://www.mdh.se/hogskolan/jobb) Application deadline for the Postdoctoral Research Fellow position is April 30, and application deadline for the PhD Student position is March 31, 2013. Best regards, Thomas Nolte ------------------------------------------------------------------- Position 1 (ref number 37/13) Title: Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in Computer Science, specializing in Multi-Core Real-Time Systems Ad: http://www.mdh.se/hogskolan/jobb/post-doctoral-research-fellow-in-computer-science-specializing-in-multi-core-real-time-systems-1.36357 (or visit "Job Opportunities" at www.mdh.se and look for ref number 37/13) ------------------------------------------------------------------- We are offering a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow position in the area of multi-core real-time systems, strengthening the Complex Real-time Embedded Systems (CORE) research group at MDH with one additional senior researcher. The CORE research group consists today (February 2013) of 7 PhD students and 3 senior researchers. The Post-Doctoral Research Fellow position is intended for research and development of new methods, techniques and tools with respect to real-time, predictability and performance on multi-core platforms. The area of research and development within this position will be guided by the current portfolio of CORE research projects. Abstract: The performance offered by multi-core platforms has over the past decade attracted significant attention in multiprocessor embedded software analysis and runtime policies, protocols and techniques. Since multi-core platforms are becoming the de-facto processors available on the market, where traditional single-cores are becoming less available, industry must cope with a potential migration towards multi-core platforms. To align academic research with industrial requirements and to facilitate migration of systems from single-processor platforms to multi-core platforms, the research community together with industry has to cope with multiple aspects that contribute to the overall performance and correctness achieved by multi-core solutions. New techniques, methods and tools are sought to be developed to achieve this goal. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Position 2 (ref number 38/13) Title: PhD Student in Computer Science, specializing in Many-Core Real-Time Systems Ad: http://www.mdh.se/hogskolan/jobb/phd-student-in-computer-science-specializing-in-many-core-real-time-systems-1.36381 (or visit "Job Opportunities" at www.mdh.se and look for ref number 38/13) ------------------------------------------------------------------- We are offering a PhD student position in the area of many-core real time systems. The position is within the Complex Real-time Embedded Systems (CORE) research group at MDH. The PhD student position is intended for research and development of new methods, techniques and tools with respect to real-time, predictability and performance on many-core platforms. Abstract: Future information technology will be based on many-core processors. For this technology to unfold its power and transform our daily lives, it must include real-time functionalities. For real-time functionalities, it is indispensable to reliably predict whether a given task will be computed in time or not. Predictability for many-core computing is a relatively new research field, where mapping of applications (static/dynamic), operating systems (centralized, distributed, scheduling, allocation, memory management, etc.), and network on chips (routing, arbitration, switches) pose entirely new challenges with respect to predictability. This PhD student position will research and develop new techniques to achieve predictable many-core solutions for the real-time systems of tomorrow. ------------------------------------------------------------------- --- 8< ------------------------ - - - - Thomas Nolte, Professor of Computer Science MRTC/Mälardalen University, Västerås, SWEDEN Cell: +46 73 6620583 Mail: [email protected] More: http://www.mrtc.mdh.se/index.phtml?choice=staff&id=0099 _______________________________________________ uai mailing list [email protected] https://secure.engr.oregonstate.edu/mailman/listinfo/uai
