Job description

Do you have in-depth technical knowledge of program optimization and distributed systems? Are you interested in working with industry to develop methods to better accelerate LLM workloads in a large environment? Would you like to participate in an LLM-related competition?In order to reduce the burden for developing LLM-based applications, a novel system is being developed and implemented in this project. This study expands upon a doctoral study conducted at the University of Leeds, which was successfully validated. In an industrial setting, we developed prototypes and methods to identify bottlenecks in the cloud-based environment and to understand the relationship between resources and workloads of LLMs. In light of heterogeneity and cost effectiveness, the proposed solution suppresses current methods.The purpose of this study is to leverage current libraries and tools to gain a better understanding of the behaviour of the latest LLMs and the requirements of upcoming LLM-based applications. The aims of the project are to develop a lean system with a user-friendly interface that is specifically aimed at algorithm experts. The project will involve the program optimization techniques, for single machine to distributed environment, from heterogeneous memory as well as computing units.We are open to discussing flexible working arrangements.To explore the post further or for any queries you may have, please contact:Prof. Jie Xu, Professor in School of Computing (tel: +44 (0)113 343 5193 or email: )What we offer in return:
