Simulation Engineer

Simulation Engineer




BARCELONA (BARCELONA)

: Barcelona Supercomputing Center

: The Heterogeneous Architectures group at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) is looking for a highly-motivated engineer to participate in the research of a new class of energy-efficient High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems based on low-power processors. This research is part of the Mont-Blanc project, one of the BSC flagship projects, which has set itself the following objective: to design a new type of computer architecture capable of setting future global HPC standards that will deliver Exascale performance while using 15 to 30 times less energy. This research is having a big media impact and important recognition in the research community:

One Man?s Dream to Build a Supercomputer From Cellphone Chips

Barcelona Supercomputer ARMed For Assault on World?s Fastest Machines

From Mobile Phones to Supercomputers

BSC Installs New ARM-Based Prototype

BSC researchers awarded SC13 Best Student Paper

The group has invested considerable amounts of effort to develop a simulation infrastructure for multi-core systems. The simulation environment aids researchers in the evaluation of future processor designs and runtime systems. We look for a person with initiative and a problem-solving mindset to help enhance and maintain the simulation infrastructure as it grows and is being adopted by multiple groups in the center.

Role

The successful candidate will join our research group to implement new features in the simulation infrastructure as they are required by the research tasks in our projects. This includes the following tasks:

Implementation and validation of performance and power models such as processors, cache coherence protocols, and emerging memory technologies

Development and maintenance of tracers and other simulator components

Testing of features and overall functionality

Instrumentation, profiling and optimization

The successful candidate is expected to show initiative and strong interpersonal skills to intera
