Rennes, Bretagne, France INRIA Temps plein
Context and Objectives

This PhD thesis is part of the NumPEx project, a key national initiative aimed at co-designing the software stack for the exascale era and preparing applications accordingly. The thesis will be co-supervised by Inria and CEA, with collaborations expected within the consortium.

Research Team

The thesis will be hosted by the KerData team at the Inria research center of Rennes, with regular visits at the CEA Center of Bruyères-le-Châtel. The team is a human-sized group of 5 permanent researchers, 2 contract researchers, 1 engineer, and 5 PhD students, offering a good work-life balance and a caring environment.

Project Overview

The project focuses on modeling and simulating heterogeneous storage systems to study their behavior, predict their performance, and propose innovative algorithmic approaches for better resource utilization. The goal is to make better use of storage resources for scientific applications and workflows destined to run on exascale supercomputers.

Key Activities
  • Study, model, and simulate storage systems such as Lustre and DAOS using the WRENCH-based simulator, StorAlloc.
  • Propose, implement, and evaluate advanced resource allocation algorithms to overcome the limitations of existing methods.
  • Collaborate with international partners, especially the University of Manoa (HI, USA), and national partners, such as the French SKA team, to validate contributions on real systems.
Requirements
  • Excellent Master's degree in computer science or equivalent.
  • Completion of a teaching unit in high-performance computing or distributed computing is an advantage.
  • Programming skills in C/C++ and Python.
  • Good communication skills in oral and written English.
  • Open-mindedness, strong integration skills, and team spirit.
Benefits
  • Subsidized meals.
  • Partial reimbursement of public transport costs.
  • Possibility of teleworking (90 days per year) and flexible organization of working hours.
  • Partial payment of insurance costs.
Salary

Monthly gross salary amounting to 2051 euros for the first and second years and 2158 euros for the third year.
