Special Issue on Parallel Algorithms for Combinatorial Optimization Problems
(http://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/parallel_algorithms)
Scope
Combinatorial optimization problems model most of the application scenarios
frequently arising in practice. Unfortunately, optimal solutions to these
problems are hard to obtain, with most of them having high computational
complexity. Even in the case of problems admitting polynomial time
solutions, e.g., the classical shortest path problem, the relevant
applications should now work on very large input instances or should cope
with a large number of concurrent users. Thus, faster solution methods are
clearly needed for achieving real time responses for problems previously
considered as easy ones. The same also holds for most heuristic methods or
approximation algorithms that have been proposed for obtaining approximate
solutions for hard optimization problems in acceptable execution times. For
large-scale problems, these techniques are inadequate, and much faster
algorithmic techniques are needed again.
Due to the aforementioned limitations, parallelism has been considered a
means of deriving faster algorithmic solutions. Parallel computation is
virtually ubiquitous nowadays and can be found in all modern computing
platforms. Although the concept of parallel execution is simple, its
application on combinatorial optimization problems is not straightforward,
due to the inherently irregular control flow that the algorithms for this
kind of problem commonly have. In this Special Issue, we solicit
contributions that will propose new methodologies for solving problems in
combinatorial optimization using parallel computation, either in
shared-memory systems (e.g., multi-core/many-core processors, GPUs, etc.) or
in distributed-memory systems (e.g., clusters, cloud architectures, etc.).
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Parallel exact algorithms: e.g., divide-and-conquer, dynamic programming,
etc.
- Parallel approximation algorithms- Parallel fixed parameter algorithms
- Parallel heuristics/metaheuristics for combinatorial optimization
problems: e.g., local search, simulated annealing, evolutionary computation,
swarm intelligence computation, etc.
- Parallel techniques in integer linear programming: e.g., parallelization
of branch-and-bound, column generation, and cutting plane methods or their
combinations (i.e., branch-and-cut or branch-and-price).
- Parallel algorithms for multi-objective optimization problems.

Subject: [DMANET] Open professor positions at TU Chemnitz: W2
"Wirtschaftsmathematik" and W2 "Finanzmathematik"
Message-ID: <56129FCC.5040508@mathematik.tu-chemnitz.de>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed
The Faculty of Mathematics of the Technische Universität Chemnitz has
two openings for W2 (associate) professor positions starting October 1, 2016:
- W2 Professur "Wirtschaftsmathematik" (economathematics)
https://www.tu-chemnitz.de/verwaltung/personal/stellen/W2_Wirtschaftsmathematik.php
- W2 Professur "Finanzmathematik" (financial mathematics)
https://www.tu-chemnitz.de/verwaltung/personal/stellen/W2_Finanzmathematik.php
Candidates should have a strong mathematical research record and a convincing
research program. They should be strongly committed to excellence in teaching.
The focus of the two positions differs:
- economathematics should emphasize mathematical methods of operations research
and/or equilibrium/game theory and may include mathematical aspects of finance,
- financial mathematics should emphasize mathematical aspects of
stochastic and statistic nature in financial (or insurance) applications,
It is our goal to fill both positions at the same time and to form a new core
area in cooperation with the Faculty of Economics, which has a further opening
in "Produktionswirtschaft und Industriebetriebslehre". Candidates should
therefore demonstrate a clear interest in disciplinary as well as
trans-departmental collaboration.
For the official announcement and the formal requirements for applications (to
be submitted by November 27, 2015) please consult the respective pages above.
Fluency in German is an advantage or will be required within a reasonable
period of time.

About the Tenure Track Program
Aarhus University offers talented scientists an attractive career perspective via the Tenure Track Program. Highly qualified candidates are appointed as assistant professors for a period of 6 years with the prospect of a performance-based advancement to a tenured position as associate professor. As part of the Aarhus University Tenure Track Program, the University carries out a mid-term evaluation to review the progress of the tenure track candidate, according to the same criteria used in the final tenure review. If the final review is positive, the candidate will be offered a tenured position as associate professor at Aarhus University.
Further information on the position can be obtained from Head of Department Lars Birkedal (birkedal@cs.au.dk<mailto:birkedal@cs.au.dk>).
Deadline
All applications must be made online and received by:
