Dear DMANET,

I would like to advertise an opening of Research Fellowship in
Combinatorics at the University of Birmingham (see below for full detail of
the advert). Thank you very much.

Yours faithfully,
Allan Lo

Research Fellowship in Combinatorics at the University of Birmingham

A postdoctoral Research Fellow position is available in "A graph
theoretical approach for combinatorial designs" at the University of
Birmingham (UK), funded by an EPSRC project (PI: Allan Lo). This post is
available for a period of one year, with a starting date between 1 May 2017
and 1 October 2017.

The successful candidate will join the Combinatorics Group in the School of
Mathematics at the University of Birmingham. The profile and research
interests of this group may be found at:
http://web.mat.bham.ac.uk/combinatorics/main.html

Applicants should have a PhD in mathematics awarded or submitted at the
time of taking up the position, a strong record of research and
publications, and familiarity with extremal and probabilistic combinatorics.

Informal enquiries about applications are very welcome and should be
directed to Allan Lo (s.a.lo at bham.ac.uk). Further details of the post,
together with information on application procedures, can be found via:

Dear colleagues.

Since its first release in 1992, MIPLIB has become a standard test set
used to compare the performance of mixed integer linear optimization
software and to evaluate the computational performance of newly
developed algorithms and solution techniques. It has been a crucial
driver for the impressive progress we have seen over the last decades.

Six years have passed since the last update in 2010. Again, the progress
in state-of-the-art optimizers and improvements in computing machinery
have made several instances too easy to be of further interest. New
challenges are needed!

MIPLIB2017 will be the sixth edition of the Mixed Integer Programming
LIBrary. To continue the diversity and quality standards of the previous
editions, we are looking for interesting and challenging (mixed-)integer
linear problems from all fields of Operations Research and Combinatorial
Optimization, ideally ones which have been built to model real-world
problems.

For the first time, we will also collect model files and data and make
them available as supplement to the raw instance format. Though this is
an optional add-on, we highly encourage model submissions in order to
provide researchers with richer information on the instances.

You can contribute now and help shape the future of mixed integer
programming by submitting your instances at

https://miplibsubmissions.zib.de/

The submission deadline is

February 28, 2017

We are looking forward to your contributions!

Thanks and best regards,

Ambros Gleixner

On behalf of MIPLIB 2017: an initiative by Arizona State University,
COIN-OR, CPLEX, FICO, Gurobi, MIPCL, MOSEK, NuOPT, SAS, and Zuse
