A joint postdoctoral fellowship will be available at MPII (Saarbruecken)
and Universidad de Chile (Santiago) starting in August 2016, or by mutual
agreement at any date thereafter. The position is funded by the MPII-UChile
collaborative grant "Fast algorithms for Massive Data Set", therefore we
are looking for applicants with interests in the design and analysis of
algorithms.

The position is for 12 months renewable by mutual agreement. The selected
candidate will spend 6 months at U. de Chile working with Jose Correa, Jose
Soto, Jose Verschae and/or Andreas Wiese and 6 months at MPII working with
researchers from the Algorithms and Complexity group (e.g., Parinya
Chalermsook, and/or Antonios Antoniadis). Travel support is available.

Applicants must hold a recent PhD or be close to finishing their thesis.
Applications including curriculum vitae, list of publications, research
plan (1 page), and names of references with their e-mail addresses, should
be sent electronically to Jose Soto jsoto@dim.uchile.cl . To ensure full
consideration the application should be sent before the deadline of June
1st, 2016. Late applications might be considered on a case by case basis.

The Max-Planck-Institute for Informatics (MPII) is located on the campus of
the Universitaet des Saarlandes in Saarbruecken, Germany. Currently, around
40 researchers of several nationalities work in the Algorithms and
Complexity Department. The working language is English. The group
collaborates with several of the major research institutions in Europe and
the U.S. and has high international visibility.

The University of Chile is the main research institution in Chile. Its
school of Physical and Mathematical Sciences gathers 200+ full time
professors together with a large number of postdocs and researchers. The
school provides one of the very best research environments in Latin America
for exact sciences and technology.

Supported by EU H2020, within the ENLIVEN (Encouraging Lifelong Learning for an Inclusive and Vibrant Europe) project, we have a 3-year RA position at the Automated Scheduling Planning and Optimisation (ASAP) Research Group in the School of Computer Science, University of Nottingham.

This is a project within a consortium of 10 European countries. The project focuses on knowledge discovery, based on analysing large databases collected from the consortium member countries, to establish knowledge bases within case based reasoning systems for policy making in lifelong learning in Europe. The objectives include to mine knowledge from large amounts of data, and to develop intelligent decision support systems to support policy makers throughout the policy making process for adult lifelong learning.

Applications are invited from highly skilled researchers in Computer Science, Knowledge Engineering, Artificial Intelligence or a related area. A good understanding of data mining and knowledge discovery is essential. In addition, strong programming skills will be an advantage.

The applicants must have a PhD (or equivalent) or near completion in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Knowledge Engineering or related disciplines. The successful candidate will be working on the development of Intelligent Decision Support Systems collaboratively with other consortium members. They should be able to work both independently and collaboratively and be able to meet tight deadlines. Good communication skills to work within multidisciplinary teams are crucial. The candidates will be expected to disseminate research results in peer-reviewed journals and conferences.

Informal enquiries may be addressed to Dr Rong Qu (Rong.Qu@nottingham.ac.uk, Tel: +44 (0)115 8466503), Professor Bob John (Robert.john@nottingham.ac.uk) and Dr Jason Atkin (Jason.Atkin@nottingham.ac.uk). Please note that any applications sent directly to these email addresses will not be accepted.
