Solid knowledge of either BSD or System V Unix internals with
experience in writing device drivers and kernel modifications.
Understanding of computer architecture and organization features
affecting DBMS performance - such as caches, virtual memory and
input/output subsystems.
Familiarity with networking and distributed computing in a Unix
environment - LAN's, TCP/IP, RPC and NFS.
Ability to work concurrently on several projects, independently
and with minimal supervision.
Strong communication and personal skills and a flair for the
complexities of dealing with outside organizations.
Mips Computers Systems was founded in 1984 by group of researchers
from Stanford University led by Prof. John Hennessey. Mips is the
acknowledged technology leader in the development of high performance
RISC architecture and RISC based computer systems. Our technology
