Advertising it is already a good first step.

Students interested should either have some previous experience with 
cell or with software partitioning problems (mapping different part of 
your program on different cpus/domains). The tasks we picked are 
relatively simple so we can take in account the difficulty of the 
platform in the time/effort budget.
