[apologies if you receive this message multiple times]

1) The School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh invites
applications for one post of Research Fellow on the project Compilers
that Learn to Optimise (COLO). COLO is an EPSRC funded project in the
area of applying machine learning to program optimisation.  This
project is a collaboration between the Compiler group headed by Dr
Michael O'Boyle and Machine Learning group led by Dr Chris
Williams. The Research Fellow will be expected to work on
developing methods for the following two problems (1) global
optimisation methods for searching for the best compiler optimisation
off-line, (2) supervised learning for predicting optimal compiler
transformations at compile time. You should normally hold a PhD in a
relevant area and be capable of developing new theory and contributing
to tool development. The fellowship is of twenty-four months duration
(in the first instance).
