======================================================
FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS -- DCM 2015

11th International Workshop on Developments in Computational Models
A satellite event of ICTAC 2015 - http://www.ictac2015.co

October 28, 2015, Cali, Colombia
http://dcm-workshop.org.uk/2015/

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF EXTENDED ABSTRACTS (5 pages): AUGUST 17, 2015
======================================================

Several new models of computation have emerged in the last few years, and
many developments of traditional computational models have been proposed
with the aim of taking into account the new demands of computer systems
users and the new capabilities of computation engines. A new computational
model, or a new feature in a traditional one, usually is reflected in a
new family of programming languages, and new paradigms of software
development.

DCM 2015 is the eleventh in a series of international workshops focusing
on new computational models. The aim of this workshop is to bring together
researchers who are currently developing new computational models or new
features for traditional computational models, in order to foster their
interaction, to provide a forum for presenting new ideas and work in
progress, and to enable newcomers to learn about current activities in
this area.

DCM 2015 will be a one-day satellite event of ICTAC 2015, the Twelfth
International Colloquium on Theoretical Aspects of Computing.

== TOPICS OF INTEREST
Topics of interest include all abstract models of computation and their
properties, and their applications to the development of programming
languages and systems:

- functional calculi: lambda-calculus, rho-calculus, term and graph
rewriting;
- quantum computation, including implementations and formal methods in
quantum protocols;
- probabilistic computation and verification in modeling situations;
- chemical, biological and bio-inspired computation, including spatial
models, self-assembly, growth models;
- models of concurrency, including the treatment of mobility, trust, and
security;
- infinitary models of computation;
- information-theoretic ideas in computing;
- relative and higher type computation.

== IMPORTANT DATES
- Submission Deadline for Extended Abstracts: August 17 (extended)
- Notification: 13 September
- Pre-proceedings version due: 5 October
- Workshop: 28 October
- Submission Deadline for EPTCS Proceedings: 7 December

ASSISTANT PROFESSOR IN COMPUTER SCIENCE

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of
Southern Denmark (SDU), Odense, invites applications for a position as
assistant professor in computer science. The appointment lasts for three
years and is expected to start by 1 March 2016. Contingent on successful
completion of a lecturer training programme and positive performance
evaluation, a position for associate professor is normally opened when
the appointment ends, for which the assistant professor can apply.

The successful applicant is expected to have a PhD in computer science
and a strong track record of research at a high international level, in
an area that complements or supplements our existing research
activities. In particular, areas interesting to us include (but are not
limited to) the following: 1) Database Systems?? 2) Concurrent and
Distributed Systems?? 3) Data Mining, for instance in biological and
health based settings.

In addition to research the applicant must be able to teach and advise
in computer science at all levels (undergraduate through PhD) as well as
teach in a broad range of core computer science areas at the
undergraduate level.

Fluency in English is required. Knowledge of Danish is not a
prerequisite for application. More English than Danish is used when
teaching in computer science, and more than half of the faculty members
in computer science are foreigners. However, the primary administrative
language at SDU is Danish and the candidate, who wishes to apply for an
associate professor position after the assistant professor appointment,
should therefore be willing to acquire Danish reading abilities within a
few years, in order to also contribute to the administrative tasks.

For further information on the department and its research and teaching
activities, see its home page or contact research leader Rolf Fagerberg,
phone: +45 28 21 17 77, email: rolf@imada.sdu.dk.

To apply, follow the link to the full call at:

The deadline for application is September 15, 2015.

Subject: [DMANET] Logistics Analyst - Port of Dover
Message-ID: <55BF6B5A.4010209@kent.ac.uk>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed

We seek a qualified candidate to work on a 2-year KTP project involving
the application of simulation and optimisation methodologies to drive
long-term strategic developments at the Port of Dover. The Port of Dover
is Europe's busiest ferry port, as well as the second busiest cruise
port in the UK. The Port also operates an active cargo terminal,
importing fresh produce and other goods to supply the UK market.

The successful applicant will be based at the Port of Dover's premises
and will work closely with Port of Dover staff and a team of academics
from the Management Science Group at the Kent Business School. This is
an exciting opportunity to work at a senior level on applying
cutting-edge analytics techniques into practice at a dynamic, publically
visible, and economically important UK company

The KTP Associate will be specifically tasked with helping to frame the
Port of Dover's 10-year master plan by providing the Port with bespoke
quantitative models for optimising traffic flow and the design of a new
cargo terminal. Successful delivery of the project will enable more
efficient use of space at this highly constrained site, resulting in
reduced traffic congestion and increased revenue generation by the Port.

Applicants should ideally hold a PhD in management science / operational
research / business analytics or similar. The Associate must have an
in-depth knowledge of simulation and optimisation modelling techniques,
as well as a good understanding of data analysis and statistics. It is
essential that the Associate be a skilled programmer and have experience
in modelling and solving optimisation problems, including using
off-the-shelf simulation / optimisation packages (e.g., SIMUL8 and
CPLEX) and developing ad-hoc exact and or heuristic methods. Previous
consultancy experience is highly desirable as is well as a proven track
record of publishing.
