Subject: [DMANET] PhD and postdoc position in algorithms at University 
of Salzburg (Austria)
Date: Wed, 13 May 2020 16:38:18 +0200
From: Sebastian Forster <forster at cs.sbg.ac.at>
To: dmanet at zpr.uni-koeln.de

Two positions, one for a PhD student and one for a postdoc, are 
available in the project "Distributed Algorithms for Fundamental Graph 
Problems (DiAloG)" led by Assistant Professor Sebastian Forster 
(https://www.cs.sbg.ac.at/~forster) from the Efficient Algorithms Group 
at the University of Salzburg, Austria. The main goal in this project is 
to design new algorithms with theoretical guarantees for fundamental 
graph problems, like maximum flow and shortest paths, in distributed 
models of computation such as the CONGEST model.


PHD POSITION:
* The position has a duration of three years with the possibility of 
extension by another year.
* A strong interest in theory/algorithms/math is required.
* The start date is negotiable.
* Salary according to the funding scheme of the Austrian Science Fund 
(FWF): 30000 EUR gross/year for 30 hours/week
* Application deadline: To receive full consideration, please send your 
application by June 14, 2020.

If you are interested in this position, please send your CV, a short

Please use the same address for informal inquiries as well.


POSTDOC POSITION:
* The position has a duration of one year with the possibility of 
extension by another year.
* Research experience in efficient graph algorithms is required, but not 
specifically in the distributed setting.
* The start date is negotiable.
* Salary according to the funding scheme of the Austrian Science Fund 
(FWF): 54000 EUR gross/year for 40 hours/week
* Application deadline: To receive full consideration, please send your
