Parallelizing Compilers
The Institute of Computer Science at the University of Innsbruck, Austria, invites applications for Phd students and Postdocs in the Distributed and Parallel Systems Group (DPS).
Your areas of interest should comprise: * Compiler technologies for C/C++/OpenCL based parallel programs on multi-core parallel architectures * Compiler-based pogram analysis and optimizations * Auto-tuning and auto-parallelization * Programming languages and methods for multiprocessor architectures * Just-in-time compilation and iterative compilation * Machine-learning and search-based parallelization and optimization techniques
Prerequisites: Applicants must hold a master or equivalent degree in computer science.
Profile of our group: DPS participated among others in the following projects: EU Apart working group, EU CoreGRID, EU EC-GIN, EU edutain@grid, EU Adaptive Services Grid, EU K-WF Grid, EU EGEE 1-3, EU Shiwa, EU HiPEAC, SFB Aurora.
Language skills: English; Note that the working and study language is English. The entire course and research programme is held in English only. There is no need to learn German for this position.
The City of Innsbruck, which hosted the Olympic winter games twice, is located in the beautiful surroundings of the Tyrolean Alps. The combination of the Alpine environment and the urban life in this historically grown town provides a high quality of living. The university has a long tradition dating back to the 16th century, and, with seven schools (Theology, Law, Economics and Social Sciences, Medicine, Humanities, Natural Sciences, Civil Engineering and Architecture), it offers a wide spectrum of research and teaching activities and interesting opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration. Besides, the Country of Tyrol strongly supports various initiatives in the IT domain.

Employer
The Distributed and Parallel Systems Group (DPS) focuses on research that enables a high degree of easy-to-use and seamless automation for flexible collaborations and computations on a global scale. For our research we consider highly parallel and heterogeneous, dynamic, failure-prone distributed and parallel systems, services and resources. DPS enables new forms of science that are computation and data-intensive, distributed, collaborative, and multi-disciplinary. Our objective is to simplify the effective use of multiprocessor architectures and geographically distributed, heterogeneous systems, which will provide the basis for the next generation of Internet-enabled performance-oriented applications. DPS research should enable scientists to do faster, better or different research.
