The Parallel computing and Optimisation Group (PCOG) at the University of Luxembourg is looking for a Research Associate in hybrid optimization algorithms for modern supercomputers. This is a fully funded position for 2 years in the UltraBO (Ultra-scale Computing for solving Big Optimization Problems) project conducted in collaboration with the BONUS (Big Optimization and Ultra-Scale computing) team of Prof. Melab at the University of Lille (France). The UltraBO project aims to design and implement novel parallel hybrid optimization algorithms for modern supercomputers. Many experiments reported in the literature demonstrate that high-quality results are obtained through hybridization. However, finding efficient and effective hybridization schemes is challenging and tedious. On the other hand, according to Top500 modern supercomputers are increasingly large (millions of cores), heterogeneous (various CPUs, GPU, FPGA, …) and less and less reliable (Mean Time Between Failures - MTBF<1h) making their programming increasingly complex. The design and implementation of parallel algorithms for these ultra-scale supercomputers is still in its infancy especially in combinatorial optimization. The Research Associate will thus conduct research in the fields of hybrid optimisation algorithms and parallel computing.
