A National Science Foundation (NSF) funded project has two research assistantships (RA) for qualified students who will pursue a Ph.D. degree of Computational Science (http://www.csrc.sdsu.edu/csrc/programs/phd.php) at the San Diego State University (SDSU) in Fall 2011 semester. This is a joint Ph.D. program between SDSU and the Claremont Graduate University (CGU). The goal of the project is to develop a novel flash disk storage architecture that exploits the addition of DRAM and dedicated software schemes to incorporate flash memory based Solid State Disks (SSDs) into enterprise-class storage systems (http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/~taoxie/research.html). The research assistantships will start in the Fall 2011 semester and last to August 2015.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
1. A Bachelor degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or closely related areas; 2. A solid background in operating systems (Linux/Unix) and computer architecture; 3. Strong programming skills in C/C++;
DESIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
1. A Master degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or closely related areas; 2. System/network/parallel programming and management; 3. Hardware design experience with FPGA and VHDL; 4. Background in computer systems; and/or a few years working experience in C programming; 5. Interest in experimental computer system research.
DETAILED INFORMATION:
- Please read page 71-75 of http://arweb.sdsu.edu/es/catalog/2010_2011/GradCandC.pdf ;
- Among the 8 courses at SDSU, 3 courses (e.g., computer science courses) can be transferred from other countries if they are Graduate level courses;
- Students need to take 6 courses at CGU and need to drive to CGU once every week for two semesters. CGU is located in Los Angeles, which is about 2-hour driving from San Diego;
- Your diploma will be stamped by both SDSU and CGU. Although your degree will be Computational Science, your research is computer science and your publication will be in computer science too;
- Your tuition will be paid by SDSU and I will pay you stipend from my research funding if you are selected. The application deadline is 15 January 2011. This program only accepts Ph.D. students in Fall semesters. There is some flexibility in the score requirements of TOEFL and GRE (general).
Preference will be given to students with a Master degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or closely related fields. Interested candidates should send a statement of research interests (no more than 2 pages), CV, and photocopies of GRE (general), TOEFL, transcripts, and diplomas to Dr. Tao Xie at xie@cs.sdsu.edu. The search will continue until the two RA positions are filled.
