Post-doctoral position at IRIT: improvement of methods for the solution of sparse linear systems on large scale parallel supercomputers
IRIT is seeking candidates for a 18-months post-doctoral position at the IRIT laboratory of Toulouse (France).
The subject is related to the improvement of methods for the solution of sparse linear systems on large scale parallel supercomputers.
Specifically, this post-doc will investigate methods for reducing the complexity and improving the scalability of multigrid solvers through the use of low-rank approximation techniques in the coarse grid solver or in the intermediate levels smoothers.
The successful candidate will work in the context of the European EoCoE-II project (https://www.eocoe.eu/) whose objective is to leverage the potential offered by the ever-growing computing infrastructure to foster and accelerate the European transition to a reliable low carbon energy supply using High Performance Computing.
Requirements: PhD in Computer Science or Mathematics, strong expertise in sparse linear algebra and high performance parallel computing.

EoCoE is a European Horizon 2020 funded project of Centre of Excellence in computing applications. It is designed to enhance numerical simulation efficiency in the international context of the High Performance Computing (HPC) challenges. It focusses its application scope towards low carbon energy domains.
To measure solar energy's profound impact, we must contemplate the “carbon footprint” — a metric that quantifies the total greenhouse gas emissions caused by an individual, organization, event, or product. Traditional electricity production contributes heavily to a nation's footprint, with fossil fuels being the predominant energy source. By harnessing solar energy, we offset these emissions and aid in the progressive decline of our collective carbon footprint.
Switching to solar is more than energy change it's a commitment to a future with reduced carbon emissions

Our Role in Solar Advancement
To measure solar energy's profound impact, we must contemplate the “carbon footprint” — a metric that quantifies the total greenhouse gas emissions caused by an individual, organization, event, or product. Traditional electricity production contributes heavily to a nation's footprint, with fossil fuels being the predominant energy source. By harnessing solar energy, we offset these emissions and aid in the progressive decline of our collective carbon footprint.
In the battle against climate change, the shift towards renewable energy sources plays a pivotal role. Among these, solar energy emerges as a beacon of hope and innovation. Positioned as both a clean and inexhaustible source of power, solar energy has shown significant promise in reducing global carbon emissions. Let’s explore how the adoption of solar power is making strides in the journey towards a more sustainable future.
Active participation from both consumers and industries in the solar movement is imperative. It includes transitioning to solar power where feasible, supporting policies that encourage
