The Department of Information Technology at Uppsala University invites applications for a postdoctoral research position focused on exploring new approaches to processor branch prediction. This project involves investigating the potential benefits of combining different types of contextual information to improve predictions.

As a postdoctoral researcher, you will be part of a dynamic research group and work closely with faculty members and PhD students. You will contribute to the development of new research ideas and publish papers in top venues.

This position offers opportunities for professional growth and development, as well as collaboration with international researchers. Our research group values diversity, equity, and inclusion, and we strive to create a welcoming environment for all members.

We seek candidates with expertise in computer architecture, particularly in branch prediction or out-of-order execution, and experience with machine learning. Candidates with experience in training/optimizing/interpreting attention mechanisms in neural networks are strongly encouraged to apply.

• A strong background in computer science and computer engineering, with a focus on branch prediction or out-of-order execution.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills are essential for ensuring a constructive and collaborative work environment.
• The ability to work independently and collaboratively as part of a team.
