Visiting Researcher Position in Augmented Reality

Visiting Researcher Position in Augmented Reality
Graz University of Technology - Institute for Computer Graphics and Vision
Description 
The Institute for Computer Graphics and Vision (ICG) at the Graz University of
Technology, Austria seeks a visiting researcher to join the research group on
Augmented Reality. We focus on investigating all aspects of creating augmented
reality experiences and applications. We want to extend our team with a senior
graduate (MSc or equivalent) or postgraduate (PhD or equivalent) researcher
with experience in the area of real-time computer vision. Particularly, we are
inviting researchers with interest and/or experience in the following topics to
apply:

- 3D tracking and detection
- Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)
- Online 3D reconstruction
- Sensor fusion
- Programmable cameras and depth cameras
- Applications on handheld devices and smartphones

Interdisciplinary research experience combining computer vision with other areas
such as computer graphics and human computer interaction is a plus. An ideal
candidate will have experience in designing, implementing and testing research
prototype systems. Development experience in C++, real-time interactive
systems and mobile devices is a plus. The successful candidate will be self-
motivated and able to pursue independent research, collaborate with other
researchers and doctoral students in the group and supervise under-graduate
students in projects. Candidates must be fluent in English (speaking and writing).


The position is available immediately. The duration of the appointment is up to 12
month, with a possibility of extension. Relocation to Graz, Austria is expected.

Two Post-doc Positions at HP Labs

HP Labs, in Palo Alto, California, seeks two postdoctoral research scientists for an
in-depth investigation of the uses of new nonvolatile memory (NVM) technologies
in high-performance computing systems. The investigation spans NVM
technology and modeling; memory system design and analysis; the impact of
NVM on system architecture; the software abstractions suitable for NVM; and
distributed programming models that can take advantage of nonvolatility.

Applicants should have (or expect soon) a PhD in Computer Science or Computer
Engineering with a background in one or more of
* memory systems
* system architecture
* operating systems
* programming of distributed systems
* resilience aspects of distributed systems
* supercomputing systems
* supercomputing applications
