Subject: [DMANET] Postdoc position in the Discrete Optimization group
	at EPFL
Message-ID: <532D60EF-AE4A-4DD2-AE41-EB428387C2B0@epfl.ch>

The "Discrete Optimization Group" at EPFL, Switzerland 
http://disopt.epfl.ch/ invites applications for a Postdoc position.
The appointment is  for 12 months.
The research interests of the group are in integer programming,
approximation algorithms, network design, computational and discrete
geometry and applied optimization. We are looking for a candidate
whose research interests lie in at least one of the fields above. 
The Postdoc position comes with teaching obligations. This either
means that the prospective holder of the position serves as a teaching
assistant or teaches one 2h-course per semester at the doctoral level.
Applications (including curriculum vitae, list of publications,
research plan, names of three references with their e-mail addresses,
and intended period of stay) should be sent to Friedrich Eisenbrand
( friedrich.eisenbrand@epfl.ch ). Electronic applications are welcome
and should consist of one single PDF-file.
The deadline for applications is November 30, 2013. The earliest starting 
date is February 1, 2013.
Friedrich Eisenbrand

EvoCOP 2014 - 14th European Conference on Evolutionary Computation in 
Combinatorial Optimisation
********************************************************
** SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO: NOVEMBER 11, 2013 **
********************************************************
April 23-25, 2014
Granada, Spain
Part of EVO* 2014 (http://www.evostar.org) including: EuroGP, EvoCOP, 
EvoBIO, EvoMUSART and EvoApplications
The 14th European Conference on Evolutionary Computation in 
Combinatorial Optimisation is a multidisciplinary conference that brings 
together researchers working on metaheuristics for solving difficult 
combinatorial optimization problems appearing in various industrial, 
economic, and scientific domains. Prominent examples of metaheuristics 
include: evolutionary algorithms, simulated annealing, tabu search, 
scatter search and path relinking, memetic algorithms, ant colony and 
bee colony optimization, particle swarm optimization, variable 
neighbourhood search, iterated local search, greedy randomized adaptive 
search procedures, estimation of distribution algorithms, and 
hyperheuristics. Successfully solved problems include scheduling, 
timetabling, network design, transportation and distribution problems, 
vehicle routing, travelling salesman, graph problems, satisfiability, 
energy optimization problems, packing problems, planning problems, and 
general mixed integer programming.
The EvoCOP 2014 conference will be held in Granada located in the south 
of Spain. It will be held in conjunction with EuroGP (the 17th European 
Conference on Genetic Programming), EvoBio (the 12th European Conference 
on Evolutionary Computation, Machine Learning and Data Mining in 
Computational Biology), EvoMUSART (12th European conference on 
evolutionary and biologically inspired music, sound, art and design) and 
EvoApplications (specialist events on a range of evolutionary 
computation topics and applications), in a joint event collectively 
known as EVO*.
