Dear NEST developers,
I would like to share with you a job opportunity that could be of interest
for the community.
APE Lab (Rome, Italy) is looking for a motivated and enthusiast candidate
for activities aimed at system software development and application porting
on advanced HPC platforms, in the framework of the RED-SEA
<https://jobs.dsi.infn.it/borseassegni/pdf/getfile.php?filename=24338.pdf>
project.
Application submission details

APE Lab is a INFN (National Institute of Nuclear Physic) initiative started
in 1984 with the goal of connecting theoretical physics and technology
through the development of custom distributed and parallel computing
systems. Since then, APE Lab has generated unique know-how, enabling
cutting-edge research in HPC (High Performance Computing) with leading roles
in the HPC community.
APE Lab has participated in several EU-funded projects, the last of which
being RED-SEA.
The RED-SEA project prepares a new-generation European Network Interconnect,
capable of powering the EU Exascale systems to come, leveraging efficient
European interconnect technology (BXI) associated with a standard and mature
technology (Ethernet), in full coordination with other EU-funded
initiatives.
The INFN task in RED-SEA is two-fold:
1. to design and implement the network interface card (APEnetX) based
on PCIe interface to communicate with CPU and GPU accelerators, and
prototyped exploiting Xilinx Alveo FPGAs.
2. to support the co-design approach for network design activities
focusing in particular on NEST application as a benchmark.
Job Details
Task: contribution to development of scalable network simulator based on
Omnet++ framework as well as to the Linux Kernel Driver of the Network
Interface Card.
Requirements: 24 months of demonstrated experience in software development
and knowledge/development of linux kernel driver. Knowledge of simulator
architectures, coding and use of MPI framework would be an advantage.
Best,
Elena Pastorelli
