2 Postdoctoral Research Positions: Atmospheric Chemistry-Climate Interactions, UK

/ April 12, 2011 Leave a Comment

Applications are invited for two post-doctoral researchers to undertake numerical modelling studies of the interaction between atmospheric chemistry processes and the climate system. One position will be based in the Department of Chemistry with Professor John Pyle and will focus on aspects of modelling the chemistry of the troposphere and stratosphere. The second will be based in the Department of Applied Mathematics with Professor Peter Haynes and will focus on dynamical interactions, including stratosphere-troposphere coupling. Both post-holders will be expected to interact strongly with the existing chemistry-climate modelling group in the Department of Chemistry.

Applicants should have (or be about to receive) a PhD in atmospheric science, physical chemistry, applied mathematics, or a related subject, and should have experience with numerical modelling in a research context.

PhD Position in Computer Science on Adaptive Multicore Memory Systems, Uppsala University, Sweden

/ April 12, 2011 Leave a Comment

In this work, adaptive memory systems and in particular on-chip memory hierarchies, will be designed and evaluated in the context of multicore processors. The memory system will adapt, i.e., dynamically reconfigure, in response to the behavior of a multithreaded or multiprogram workload.The candidate should have a Master of Science in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent, in a field which is relevant for the work. It is helpful to have a good background in some of the fields: computer architecture, VLSI, digital electronics, as well as to be proficient in implementing non-trivial algorithms. The position is for a maximum of five years and includes departmental duties at a level of at most 20% (typically teaching).

The department is striving to achieve a more equal gender balance and female candidates are particularly invited to apply.There are university guidelines regarding salary level.
