About Oglethorpe University
Basic information and contact details for Oglethorpe University
Oglethorpe University is a private liberal-arts institution located in the city of Atlanta, Georgia. First established in 1835, it had a troubled history, plagued by funding and political problems before finally being opened on a permanent basis in 1913.
The university is primarily based on a 100-acre campus, itself included in the National Register of Historic Places. Whilst the university is home to a number of interesting and important historic sites, one of the best known is a time capsule known as the Crypt of Civilisation. Due to be opened in the year 8113, the time capsule was sealed in 1936 and contains numerous important cultural and historical artefacts. The campus is also home to a number of other historical places, including the Oglethorpe Museum of Art.
Like many universities, Oglethorpe maintains a diverse athletics programme. Known for their mascot, Stormy Petrel (named after a famous seabird), Oglethorpe’s athletic teams compete in a wide range of sports including lacrosse, basketball, tennis, softball, and volleyball.
In terms of academic offerings, the university has around 25 majors available, covering a mix subjects across Natural Science, Social Science and Humanities. Alongside this are a smaller number of undergraduate minors, as well as some pre-professional qualifications. The university also offers a number of different foreign study opportunities, a long-standing feature of its academic portfolio.
Oglethorpe has produced a number of well-known and successful alumni over the years including MLB Hall of Famer Luke Appling.

Research Assistant in the Division of Science (Computer Science) – Dr. Riyadh Baghdadi
New York University Abu Dhabi Corporation
United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi
New York University Abu Dhabi Corporation
United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi
Description The Modern Compilers Lab in the Computer Science program at New York University Abu Dhabi, seeks to recruit a research assistant to work on the intersection of compilers and deep learning. Many companies, such as Google, Facebook, and Amazon are building new specialized programming frameworks. This is because these companies need to allow their users to write simple, high-level code and run it efficiently on different hardware architectures. For example, Google has built TensorFlow, a framework for deep learning allowing users to run deep learning on multiple hardware architectures without changing the code. Our research team at NYUAD (New York University Abu Dhabi) is developing a new programming framework called Tiramisu [1]. Unlike existing frameworks, Tiramisu can perform advanced code optimizations that are hard to apply otherwise. Because of this, Tiramisu can generate fast code that outperforms highly optimized code written by expert programmers and can target different hardware architectures (multicore, GPUs, FPGAs, and distributed machines). In order to have the best performance (fastest execution) for a given Tiramisu program, many code optimizations should be applied. Optimizations include vectorization (using hardware vector instructions), parallelization (running loop iterations in parallel), enhancing data locality by fusion, and blocking (i.e. accessing arrays in a way that improves temporal and spatial data locality). A large number of optimizations exist and choosing which optimization should be used and which should not is important for performance. In some situations, some optimizations are harmful to performance while they are beneficial in other situations. Currently, there is no way to help users choose which optimizations should be used. Expert programmers usually spend a lot of time trying different optimizations manually to find the best set of optimizations. The goal of this project is to add support for automatic code optimization in Tiramisu. In particular, we want to use machine learning/deep learning to achieve this. Currently, a basic automatic optimization module that relies on machine learning has been developed and we want to take that module to the next level. The final product of this project would be a compiler pass that allows Tiramisu to automatically choose which optimization should be used for a given unoptimized program. We want to produce a high-quality technique that can be used by the users of Tiramisu and especially by our partner companies and research labs. Candidates must hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent in Computer Science, though a master’s degree is preferred. The ideal candidate will have Internship or experience in the areas of compilers and artificial intelligence. For consideration, applicants need to submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, transcript, statement of research interests and two letters of reference, all in PDF format. If you have any questions, please email Prof. Riyadh Baghdadi at baghdadi@nyu.edu or mrasras@nyu.edu. The terms of employment are very competitive and include housing and educational subsidies for children. Applications will be accepted immediately and candidates will be considered until the position is filled. About NYU Abu Dhabi https://nyuad.nyu.edu/en/ NYU Abu Dhabi is the first comprehensive liberal arts and research campus in the Middle East to be operated abroad by a major American research university.
