https://dare-riscv.eu/home) project developing novel high-performance computing and AI technologies. Learn more about cutting-edge technology such as chiplet-based processors. Participate in a project with multiple European leading partners. Join our fantastic team of researchers and engineers in the beautiful city of Gothenburg, on the Swedish west coast.
Information about the project and division
The broad goal for this project is to develop prototype HPC and AI systems based on EU-design and developed chiplets using the latest technology for achieving high-performance and energy efficiency. The task for this position focuses on the development of novel solutions in the topics of memory hierarchy and interconnection networking for an advanced RISC-V based Vector Processor architecture. At the end of the project the designed modules are expected to be integrated into the chiplet prototype.
At Chalmers, this particular part of the project will be run in the Division of Computer Networks and Systems within the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. Within the Division we have four faculty members, four postdocs and eleven PhD students who are engaged in research in computer architecture. The funding for the group comes mostly from national and EU projects. The faculty members have been awarded prestigious grants for their research such as the ERC advanced grant and also participate in top EU projects such as the European Processor Initiative (EPI) and other EuroHPC projects. The results of the research work are published in highly-ranked conferences and journals in the field. In this environment we are currently building up a new research focusing on the design of advanced Domain Specific Architectures (DSA) or accelerators. This announcement is for a position within this group.
International students rate the Chalmers education experience as one of the best in Europe, according to results from the International Students Barometer. The quality of teaching and assessment receives particular praise. Additionally, when asked if the University was overall 'a good place to be' students' responses put Chalmers at number one in the world. Chalmers has launched a MSc program in High-Performance Computer Systems and in Data Science, putting the topic of this Postdoc project in the center of gravity of educational efforts.
