The Innovative Computing Lab (ICL, http://icl.cs.utk.edu/) of the Universityof Tennessee is looking for a bright, motivated person to join as a staffresearcher. The applicant would be expected to join existing projects incomputational science, as well as showing initiative in pursuing newresearch directions. Current computational science projects in ICL addressthe integration of numerical algorithms and state-of-the-art hardware, withan emphasis on distributed computing and performance optimization.

The position involves numerical linear algebra (dense, sparse, direct, anditerative methods), numerical analysis and scientific programming. Provenexperience with C and/or Fortran derivatives (such as C++, Java, Fortran95), parallel architectures and algorithms as well as performanceoptimization is also desired. Excellent oral and written communicationskills are mandatory. A willingness to participate in a highly diverse,multi-disciplinary environment is also essential.

Degree requirements: (1) Ph.D. in Computer Sciences or related area withdemonstrable background in numerical mathematics, in particular linearsystem solving and eigenvalue calculations; or (2) M.S. in Computer Sciencesand 3-5 years relevant research or work experience.

Additional benefits of the position include a competitive salary, travelopportunities, access to state-of-the-art computational facilities(including both parallel architectures and high-performance workstations),and collaborative research opportunities in a very active research programin advanced scientific computing.

Salary: $40,000 - $60,000/year, depending on experience.If you have questions, feel free to contact Jack Dongarra,dongarra@cs.utk.edu or at the address below:
