- the ability to implement algorithm optimization techniques using the specifics and advantages of a specific hardware architecture (eg CPU, GPU);
- experience in working with libraries used to accelerate computations (e.g. openCL);
- experience in programming in C, C ++, Python, Matlab;
- experience in laboratory work;
- additional skills: Experience in the implementation of low-level drivers or software for data acquisition and distribution from efficient network interfaces in PC-type servers (e.g. Ethernet);
- additional skills: Practical knowledge of the Assembler language or experience related to the implementation of algorithms using the Assembler language;
- additional skills: Knowledge of the principle of particle detectors and measurement methods used in physical experiments;
- additional skills: Practical ability to write software for Xilinx FPGAs;
Scope of a candidate’s work:
Participation in the research project "Imaging based on gas electron multipliers under intense radiation from tokamak plasma" financed by the National Science Centre under the OPUS program. The project is aimed at the development and testing of gas detectors with the appropriate electronic system for data acquisition and processing.
Work in this position will deal with the analysis of data obtained from the gas detectors under development (GEM type, Gas Electron Multiplier) recorded by a multi-channel measurement system. The data will be sent via high-speed data transmission links to the server unit where it will then be processed by measurement algorithms.
The Candidate's participation in designing efficient data processing on the server unit is also planned. At the same time, the Candidate will participate in the work related to the effective distribution of data on measurement platforms, using network interfaces and disks for data recording.
The period of participation in the project - 42 months.
