excellent university degree (master or comparable) in computer engineering or electrical engineering a strong background in digital design, hardware description languages (e.g. Verilog, VHDL, SystemC), reconfigurable architectures (e.g. FPGA, CGRA) What we expect from you: above-average degree achieved in short study period willingness and ability to think beyond the boundaries of your field, to act in an international and diverse environment and to live an open and constructive communication strong analytic and problem-solving skills, creativity an independent, target- and solution-driven work attitude fluency in English, knowledge of German would be a plus

Tasks: The PhD student will be responsible for the modeling and simulation of 3D reconfigurable architectures e.g. based on emerging technologies (e.g. RFETs, memristive devices), and the evaluation with e.g. machine learning and image processing benchmarks
