Lecturer in Management Science/Operational Research
Department of Management Science, Strathclyde Business School
University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, Scotland

*Please note that a "Lecturer" in the UK is equivalent to "Assistant Professor" in the US and Europe, and involves research, teaching and knowledge exchange.*

The Department of Management Science at the University of Strathclyde is seeking to recruit a lecturer in Management Science/Operational Research (MS/OR). This post is designed to strengthen the Department's research base and contribute to the University's strategic ambition to be recognized as a leading technological university. The appointee is expected to be an accomplished researcher in MS/OR and able to contribute to the department's growing portfolio of research and teaching in the area of Analytics. We seek someone with a strong methodological specialism, the ability to translate theory to practice and with enthusiasm for MS/OR. The department has a strong reputation in both theory and collaborative research, runs a popular Masters programme in MS/OR, and has a strong doctoral programme. It is part of Strathclyde Business School, one of the top ranking UK Business Schools.

The Department is a leading MS/OR department in the UK and hosted the highly successful 2015 EURO conference - showcasing the University and the vibrant city of Glasgow to over 2000 participants. MS/OR is a key area for the University in developing its Technology and Innovation Centre which links industry and public bodies with the University through programmes in Energy, Health, Future Cities and Advanced Manufacturing. MS/OR researchers contribute to each of these themes. The University's innovative approach to industrial collaboration is one of the factors that led it to being awarded UK University of the Year in 2012 and UK Entrepreneurial University of the year in 2013. The University's rapidly developing industrial research collaborations offer tremendous opportunities for MS/OR researchers.

For further details and informal enquiries please contact Professor Susan Howick, susan.howick@strath.ac.uk; Tel: +44 141 548 3798.

Online applications can be found at http://vacancies.strath.ac.uk/ and should be submitted by the closing date of 30th September 2015. Further information about the department is available at http://www.strath.ac.uk/mansci/.

Ph.D. Positions in Algorithms/Theory

We are interested in a variety of hot topics in the area of distributed
computing, such as distributed algorithms, graph algorithms, social and
economic networks, or recommendation systems. We are looking for new
members with a strong interest in algorithms/theory, and a Master's
degree in Computer Science or Mathematics or a related field. A
candidate should be attracted by and proficient in areas such as
approximation algorithms, complexity theory, distributed algorithms,
graph theory, online computation, computational geometry, probabilistic
algorithms, learning theory, combinatorics or optimization. A new group
member can choose and shape a project according to his or her interests
and talents within the first months of employment. Successful candidates
are expected to work towards a doctoral degree, and participate in the
teaching activities of the group.

OPEN ENDED RESEARCH ASSOCIATE POSITION IN TIME COMPLEXITY ANALYSIS OF
BIO-INSPIRED COMPUTATION

The Department of Computer Science, The University of Sheffield, offers a
Research Associate position to work on the time complexity analysis of
bio-inspired computation techniques. The position is part of an EPSRC
funded project entitled "Rigorous Runtime Analysis of Bio-inspired
Computing" started on March 31st 2015. The project is based in the
Computational Biology Group at the Department of Computer Science and
reports to Dr. Pietro Oliveto.

The Research Associate will work in a well-connected international team
with expertise in bio-inspired computing, to develop the research
objectives of the project and to contribute to its administration under the
supervision of the Principal Investigator. The Research Associate will
collaborate closely and drive the interaction with several national and
international project partners. She/He will also contribute to the
organisation of activities aimed at maximising the dissemination and impact
of the results as well as developing further research objectives and
contributing to future bids for research funding.

To apply you should have completed, or nearly completed, a PhD in computer
science. You should have good knowledge and strong experience of either the
theoretical analysis of bio-inspired computation techniques or of the
computational complexity analysis of problem specific deterministic and
randomized algorithms or other stochastic processes. You should have high
level analytical and computational skills and the ability to co-supervise
PhD students in bio-inspired computation.

These posts offer a competitive salary. For the duration of the project
funding is readily available for conference attendance and research visits
to partner organisations. Project partners include, amongst others,
research groups at the University of Birmingham, UK, at the Technical
University of Denmark (DTU) in Lyngby, Denmark and at the University of
Adelaide, Australia.
