À propos
The E-CoRe project (Energy-efficient Computing via Reversibility), funded by the European Union's Horizon Europe programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, invites applications for 13 PhD positions in reversible computing and energy-efficient systems, distributed across Europe (Italy, Denmark, UK, Poland, and France). We welcome applications from all qualified candidates and are committed to equal opportunity and inclusion in our recruitment. Applicants should however satisfy the mobility rule: they should not have lived or worked in the hiring country for more than 1 year in the last 3 years. About E-CoRe E-CoRe (Energy-efficient Computing via Reversibility) advances the science and practice of reversible computing for a sustainable digital future. The project sets the stage for the Reversible Computing revolution by training the next generation of experts to make computing sustainable. Energy is a main concern in current society. Limited natural resources and high production costs lead to energy shortages, and energy consumption causes complex and undesirable phenomena such as pollution and global warming. IT accounts for a surprisingly large fraction of global energy consumption; estimated at 10%. Hence, energy efficiency in computing is a critical and necessary research area, often called green computing. The laws of physics (Landauer’s principle in particular) fix a lower bound to the amount of energy needed to perform an irreversible computation, proportional to the number of bits of information discarded by it. Classical computing discards large amounts of information (e.g. x=0 on 64 bits discards 64 bits), while reversible computing (RC) discards none, avoiding Landauer’s lower bound. Although the fraction of energy lost due to Landauer’s principle is currently small (~1‰), it will become increasingly relevant as hardware technology improves. RC will become a main player in the quest for energy-efficient computing; a transition we call the RC revolution. The world, EU research, and the software industry are not yet ready for the Reversible Computing revolution. RC is a young and relatively small area, albeit with breakthrough applications in robotics, debugging, and parallel simulation. E-CoRe aims at setting the stage for the RC revolution by forming a community of experts with deep understanding of RC intricacies, who will improve and popularize RC languages, algorithms and architectures; in particular in energy-intensive applications such as machine learning, blockchains and computer vision for drones. The project is structured into four work packages and 13 PhD Topics, described below. PhD Topics
