Modeling and exploration engineer for computing architectures with optical components h/f

Le CEA est un acteur majeur de la recherche, au service des citoyens, de l'économie et de l'Etat.

Il apporte des solutions concrètes à leurs besoins dans quatre domaines principaux : transition énergétique, transition numérique, technologies pour la médecine du futur, défense et sécurité sur un socle de recherche fondamentale. Le CEA s'engage depuis plus de 75 ans au service de la souveraineté scientifique, technologique et industrielle de la France et de l'Europe pour un présent et un avenir mieux maîtrisés et plus sûrs.

Implanté au coeur des territoires équipés de très grandes infrastructures de recherche, le CEA dispose d'un large éventail de partenaires académiques et industriels en France, en Europe et à l'international.

Les 20 000 collaboratrices et collaborateurs du CEA partagent trois valeurs fondamentales :

- La conscience des responsabilités
- La coopération
- La curiosité As part of a multidisciplinary research team of experts in hardware IP design and design tools, you will design innovative tools and methodologies for the design of electronic architectures.
You are able to use your skills to perform modeling, simulation and design space exploration of complex digital computing architectures for high performance computing. You will contribute to develop and use the tools to perform multi-criteria optimization
In the context of HW architecture simulation and exploration, the laboratory develops virtual prototyping and architecture exploration tools(VPSim & A-DECA respectively). These tools integrate HW architecture modeling capabilities and executing binary software to BE ported directly to a real target, as well as functional validation, debugging and performance evaluation of software in a fully virtualized environment. Integrating a large IP portfolio, IT is possible to emulate functionality through QEMU) and interfaces to use external models and obtain its performance data. Finally, a Python API describing the specific hardware platform to BE simulated and the configuration parameters provides the ability to obtain the performance data of the simulated environment during the execution of applications for architecture exploration purposes. The exploration frameworks allow efficient design space exploration for fuures architectures thanks to various optimization strategies coupled xith simulation tools.
As part of a large-scale European project for high-performance computing, you will join the research team of experts with the mission to contribute to the development of a virtual prototype of a computing platform integrating optical link for simulation and design space exploration.
In the course of your mission, you will BE required to :
- Understand the technical specifications of the computing system integrating an optical link
- Develop a high-level virtual prototype based on CEA VPSIM simulation tool to provide first estimations of KPIs and to allow system-of-chiplets architecture exploration;
- Determine best architectural parameters in terms of power, performance, area as well as sustainability using A-DECA tool;
- Collaborate/communicate with other research partners involved to expand CEA VPSIM tool to model optical-switch based architectures;
- Participate in the scientific dissemination of the team's research results (contributions to publications in national and international conferences), design of videos, demonstrations and tutorials as well as in the valorization of our innovations (writing of patents).
To carry out your mission, you will have access to the laboratory's simulation, modeling and exploration tools.
