PhD and Post-doc in dynamic resource allocation in many-core systems at LIRMM in Montpellier

The Laboratory of Informatics, Robotics, and Microelectronics of Montpellier (LIRMM) is looking for Ph.D. and Post-doc candidates in dynamic resource allocation in many-core systems for both embedded and high performance computing domains. Expected starting date: September/October 2014.

Topic

Dynamic Resource Allocation in Embedded and High-Performance Computing Systems

Description

These Ph.D. and Post-doc positions are proposed in the frame of the DreamCloud FP7 European project ( <http://www.dreamcloud-project.org/> http://www.dreamcloud-project.org), which deals with Dynamic Resource Allocation in Embedded and High-Performance Computing Systems. In the current technological landscape, many-core execution platforms appear to be quite attractive solutions to the implementation of systems in the embedded and high-performance computing domains. They offer the necessary parallelism level to meet the stringent design requirements in these domains: temporal performance, energy and power efficiency. Nevertheless, the design and management of large scale many-core system is very challenging, especially regarding resource management while satisfying the aforementioned requirements.

In embedded systems, operating systems (OS) usually play the role of platform resource manager for an efficient application execution. For large-scale infrastructures, virtualization techniques, typically including a middleware, are preferred to transparently manage the underlying execution resources in a flexible way. Dynamic resource allocation techniques rely on algorithms and heuristics providing different levels of performance guarantees, which fit different levels of dynamism on application workload. Coupling such techniques with some light embeddable software models capable of performance prediction can be very interesting in the perspective of steering the resource allocation policy in efficient and smart many-core systems.

In these Ph.D. and Post-doc offers, we are interested in investigating several aspects in relation with the dynamic resource allocation in many-core systems for applications in both embedded and high performance computing domains. The successful candidates will work in the ADAptive Computing group (ADAC) hosted at the microelectronics department in the Montpellier Laboratory of Informatics, Robotics, and Microelectronics (LIRMM). They are expected to start working around September/October 2014.
