Research assistantships and post-doctoral positions are available. Available projects are in the areas of: (1) the MARCO Gigascale System Research Center's "platform architectures" thrust (system-level roadmapping); (2) VLSI physical design spanning interconnect design, large-scale partitioning and placement, and problems at the VLSI design-manufacturing interface; (3) SRC- and NSF-sponsored projects on challenges at the design-manufacturing interface.
