PhD Fellowship in Open and Programmable Accelerators for Data-intensive Applications (CHORY)
PhD Fellowship in Open and Programmable Accelerators for Data-intensive Applications (CHORY), Department of Computer Science (DIKU), Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen
Department of Computer Science at University of Copenhagen (DIKU), PLTC section, invites applicants for a PhD candidate or a postdoc in the context of the Horizon Europe project CHORYS focused on Open and Programmable Accelerators for Data-Intensive Applications in the Cloud.
Start date is (expected to be) 1 August 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter. Note that a postdoc position is also open. We will hire a postdoc or a PhD, there is only one position.
The project
CHORYS focuses on support for data-intensive applications in the cloud by developing and demonstrating open and programmable accelerators. Through CHORYS, we will demonstrate that European cloud providers and their customers can leverage open accelerators for near-data processing and asynchronous data services to improve the performance, energy-efficiency, and cost of data-intensive applications. Information on the project is available at www.chory.io.
University of Copenhagen is coordinating the project and responsible for tasks including RISC-V softcores integration on experimental accelerators, design and implementation of a programmable SSD prototype, and development of a demonstrator leveraging a programmable SSD.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for candidates with a strong systems background and interest in data-intensive systems and cloud-based applications programming. We are looking for candidates for either a postdoc or a PhD position. More specifically, we are looking for candidates that have:
The position is under the supervision of Philippe Bonnet, who is coordinating the CHORYS project. Philippe’s group is focused on hardware-software co-design.

Principal supervisor is Professor Philippe Bonnet, Department of Computer Science, bonnet@di.ku.dk
Further information on the Department is linked at http://www.science.ku.dk/english/about-the-faculty/organisation/. Inquiries about the position can be made to Philippe Bonnet.
The position is open from 1 August 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter.
The University wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
Terms of employment
The position is full-time and for 3 (three) years.
The position is covered by the Memorandum on Job Structure for Academic Staff.
Terms of appointment and payment accord to the agreement between the Ministry of Finance and The Danish Confederation of Professional Associations on Academics in the State.
