We are looking for one postdoc researcher and one PhD student to join the Programming Research Group, lead by Prof. Hidehiko Masuhara, at Department of Mathematical and Computer Sciences, Tokyo Institute of Technology. The posts are funded by a JST CREST research project on Modularity for Supercomputing. The postdoc position is available immediately. The PhD position is for the terms from April 2014, but requires application by Jaunary 22, 2014.
The Programming Research Group is tasked with engaging in research on modular software development techniques for supercomputing, especially on design and implementation of domain-specific languages for prototyping highly-parallel scientific applications and for experimenting optimization techniques. The project continues until March 2017. Candidates will be responsible for conducting research on advanced techniques for software modularity related to the above research topic.
- Postdoc position: Ideal candidates will posses a strong background on programming languages, software engineering, and/or high-performance computing. Candidates must posses a PhD in computer science or another close related discipline.
The position is available immediately. The contract of appointment will be renewed for each academic year, and can be extended up to March 2017, subject to performance. Salary will be about 4,000,000 up to 5,000,000 Japanese Yen per year.
- PhD position: Ideal candidates will have some experience of conducting research on programming languages, software engineering, and/or high-performance computing. The position is provided as a Research Assistant for a PhD student at the Department of Mathematical and Computing Sciences. Salary will be about 2,000,000 Japanese Yen per year.
Candidates must have a master degree or an equivalent in computer science or a closely related subject. Candidates must take the entrance examination by the department for admission. The application deadline is January 21, 2014. Detailed information can be found here.
Interested candidates for both positions are invited to send a detailed CV via email to Hidehiko Masuhara (masuhara@acm.org). Please note that the deadline for the application to the PhD student is approaching soon.
