Part-time Position
Posted September 14, 2000
The Wavelet Research and Radioastronomy Group in STARLab has a
part-time position for a student who can help put together a DSP-based
data acquisition and analysis system for use at the Big Dish. The
system will consist of a multi-node DSP, with dedicated multi-port
memory, in a pci co-processor addition to a networked pc. The
principal tasks for this position will be assembling the DSP system
hardware, installing software development tools, building a real-time
data acquisition and analysis environment, and the construction of a
graphical user interface featuring multi-resolution, time-history
spectroscopy. The position will support up to 20 hours/week, during
the 2000/2001 academic year, and is available immediately.
Experience with DSP code development is preferred. Interested
students should contact Ivan Linscott, room 319 Packard Building,
phone: 650 723-3676, and email, linscott@nova.stanford.edu.

A part-time position is available for a student to analyze
radioastronomy archives acquired at the Big Dish. The work will
involve first assembling sky maps from large data sets recorded at the
dish, and then building feature detection software to search for
interesting features in the maps. The work is ongoing with up to 20
hours supported per week throughout the 2000/2001 academic year and
the possibility of extending into the summer. Experience with Matlab,
or a similar analysis package is preferred. Interested students
should contact Ivan Linscott, room 319 Packard Building, phone: 650
723-3676, and email: linscott@nova.stanford.edu.
