Two year postdoctoral research position at the Université Libre de Bruxelles.

13 Nov '09

*** Sorry for cross-postings *** A two-year research position is available in the group "Graphs and Mathematical Optimization" of the Computer Science Department of Université Libre de Bruxelles, in Belgium. The project, due to start in December, is an industrial collaboration with Advanced Information Systems (www.aisystems.eu) aiming at developing parallel algorithms for solving large planning and scheduling problems. The objectives of the project are to: * Improve the speed and quality of the optimization algorithms in the field of advanced planning and scheduling. * Develop the parallelization of heuristic methods such as simulated annealing, tabu search, and genetic algorithms in the field of resource allocation, scheduling and cutting plan optimization. * Define the best programming paradigm to design, develop and maintain optimization techniques with a high but controllable level of concurrency. * Develop insight and methods for the tuning of concurrent search algorithms. * Develop methods to detect parallelization opportunities in existing search algorithms. We are looking for a researcher holding a PhD in mathematics, computer science or operations research, or with a significant research experience related to the project. A good knowledge in one or more of the fields of parallelization techniques, local search heuristics and constraints programming is required. The position is subject to the acceptance of the candidate by Advanced Information Systems. For more information about our group, please visit http://www.ulb.ac.be/di/gom/ To apply or for more information about the position, please contact Bernard Fortz (bernard.fortz(a)ulb.ac.be)
