Applicants are sought for a postdoctoral fellowship devoted to developing and implementing new algorithms for the concurrent solution of large and difficult optimization problems (linear, nonlinear, global, discrete, etc.). This is timely and important research for several reasons: (i) the now universal availability of multi-core machines as well as easy access to cloud computing, (ii) the increasing need to solve ever-larger optimization problems based on massive data sets, and (iii) the much improved ability to write concurrent programs in the newest generation of concurrent programming languages.
The Fellow will work with Prof. John Chinneck in the Department of Systems and Computer Engineering at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. Please see:
