establishing direct links between combinatorics and other branches of
mathematics. The conference is also open to theories of discrete
algorithmic computing in the area of combinatorics with strong natural
mathematical flavour.

Dear colleague
I apologize for cross-posting.

Molde University College (HiM) is searching for a professor in logistics. The Professorship is within the area of quantitative logistics, encompassing topics such as operation research, operations management, informatics, mathematics, or other quantitative approaches related to logistics. We are searching for an active researcher in his or her field, and with a strong publication record.

Possible application areas may include:
.Rich vehicle routing problems. This implies using VRP methodology to solve real-word problems.
.Production planning and inventory control models.
.Models for profit maximization and price controlled demand.
.Game-theoretic approaches to supply chain co-operation
.Stochastic problems - how to include uncertainties in the problem formulations
.Parallel processing implementation - to obtain increased computing speed by utilizing multiple kernels and/or a large number of CPU's.

The professor is expected to have an international focus. The person filling the position will have particular responsibility to initiate, participate in, and sustain research activities in logistics.?

The full announcement and application details can be found on
http://himolde.easycruit.com/vacancy/1110341/42153?iso=no

The application deadline is 1st March 2014
