Noruega: Desarrollo de software: PhD position

Desarrollo de software: PhD position in distributed processing. Oslo (Noruega) 

Project Description 

The aim of the research project is to perform basic research in the area of parallel programming and parallel processing in the context of future distributed large-scale heterogeneous systems, and real-time multimedia applications in particular. We aim to research and develop concepts and mechanisms that will enable the development of software for these next-generation big-data applications, especially in the context of real-time (multimedia) systems. This is achieved by solving fundamental challenges for analyzing, dividing, compiling, scheduling and dispatching of tasks that can run correctly in parallel in a shared distributed system of heterogeneous computing resources in complex topologies. 

Your Profil 

The candidates must have very good documented and proven knowledge in the area of systems-oriented, experimental computer science (operating systems, protocols and the architecture of distributed systems). Additionally, strong programming skills are required (and/or good applied math skills), and experience from real-time processing frameworks and video processing is desired. The internationally distributed nature of these projects, including partners from research and industry, requires the right candidate to have very good communication skills in English. Very good skills in scientific and popular presentation and writing will also be considered in employment decisions.
