I am recruiting 1-2 student assistants ("amanuens") 20%-50% for a large research project in distributed, parallel and heterogeneous computing for the edge/cloud continuum. The work (C/C++ programming, system administration, help with experiments) could be suitably combined with an internal master thesis project in the same topic area.
