Dear EE Students,
UF is
headquarters to the top national research center in its field, the NSF
Center for High-Performance and Reconfigurable Computing (CHREC,
pronounced "shreck", www.chrec.org).
CHREC is a partnership with >30 industry and government partners,
many in the space industry. Much in CHREC focuses upon space-based
computing (i.e., processing, networking, systems, services, apps,
missions) for the International Space Station, satellites small and
large, planetary rovers, and deep-space exploration, from Earth to space
science and defense.
One of our leading
projects is CSP, the CHREC Space Processor (CSP). The new computing
concepts and technologies of CSP have been adopted by NASA to be
featured on three upcoming NASA space missions, with more in the
planning stages. The CSP design and testing team consists mostly of
juniors and seniors working on a variety of hardware, software, and
hybrid tasks, from PCB design to FPGA design, from operating systems to
software applications. More info on CSP can be found here:
With
graduation last semester of several of our CSP team members, we are
recruiting a few more to join for 2015. Here are the qualifications:
- Strong interest in space research with NASA and DOD
- US citizenship or permanent residency (necessary for NASA and DOD space research)
- Junior or senior status in ECE or CISE (i.e., EE, CpE, or CS major)
- Ability to commit at least 10 hours/week of time to CSP (at first as a volunteer; with success then on a funded slot)
- Completion of EEL3701C & 4744C w/ B+ grades or better
- Strong interest in digital design and/or PCB design and/or software design
- Preferred C/C++ and Linux experience
Please
contact me if you are interested and meet these qualifications and
include your resume and transcript (unofficial copy is fine). We will
be inviting candidates for interview in the near future.
Best wishes,
-- Alan G.
