The R&D group of ARM Ltd. is based in Cambridge and is responsible for
performing research into various aspects of ARM's technology and provide
input into ARM's longer term roadmap. The group has a successful record
of creating key technologies which are now a key part of the ARM
architecture (NEON, TrustZone, Thumb-2, Jazelle) as well products now
available from ARM (IEM).
The group has a wide range of activities on-going. Some of these are:
* Evolution of the ARM architecture
* Energy efficient computing
* Addressing challenges posed by the very deep sub micron (VDSM)
technology advances.
* Collaboration with a number of Universities.

The following positions are available in the R&D group:

Staff/Principal Research Engineer - Systems Architect

The High Performance Computing research group of the Computer
Architecture Department at Universitat Politécnica de Catalunya is one
of the leading research groups in Europe in topics related to high
performance processor architectures, runtime support for parallel
programming models, and performance tuning applications for
supercomputing. Over the last 5 years, the group has published over 250
papers in refereed international conferences, and 25 PhD thesis.

In April 2005, the Spanish Government, the Catalan Government and the
Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) signed an agreement to create a
new supercomputer center, the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) that
host the MareNostrum supercomputer, the fastest supercomputer in Europe.
The mission of BSC, www.bsc.es, is to investigate, develop and manage
