TEACHING
Relevant teaching topics
Undergraduate and master’s in computer science
At least half of the recruited candidate’s teaching responsibilities will be at the undergraduate level.
He or she will also participate in teaching master’s students in computer science, particularly as part
of the systems electronics, computer systems (SESI) specialty.
Teaching objectives and supervisory requirements
The recruited candidate will teach CPU architecture, peripheral programming/management and/or modeling
embedded systems, as part of the SESI specialty.
The recruited candidate may also help to offer career guidance and professional development training
for undergraduates, especially by supervising internships.
The recruited candidate will also participate in first-year student research projects (ARE) and in career
guidance and workforce readiness training, especially as part of the career guidance and workforce
readiness courses offered as part of the undergraduate degree program.
RESEARCH
The successful applicant will conduct his or her research projects as part of the SoC (Embedded Systems)
department, which is part of the Computer Science Laboratory at Paris 6 (LIP6).
The research will address challenges presented by embedded systems of the future. These studies will
focus on the algorithms, languages and architecture of these systems, which are characterized by massive
parallelism and increasing needs for mobility and reliability.
The laboratory is heavily involved in the GDR SoC-SiP research group at the European level, and
is a member of the ASI (Accellera Systems Initiative) standardization consortium for specifying modeling
languages for electronic systems: SystemC and its AMS and verification extensions. Within the framework
of the Sorbonne University cluster, the laboratory participates in the SMART labex, the “Infenv”
Convergence call and the IUIS health engineering group. The candidate should be prepared to strengthen
our involvement by participating in work groups associated with these organizations.
The candidate should be proactive in departmental activities, should strengthen existing industrial ties (such
as STMicroelectronics, Thalès, Bull, Orange Labs, NXP, Infineon, Continental and Valeo) and should create
new industry partner contacts. He or she will also play a significant role in the department’s ALSOC team.
Ideally, the candidate will have particular expertise in one of more of the following subjects: modeling
architectures, accounting for energy consumption, many-core architectures, scalability of algorithms and
design methods, modeling, SoC simulation and verification; approaches to guarantee the security and
reliability of SoC hardware and software; integration; cyber-physical systems; heterogeneous and mobile
systems; and communication systems for health.
