*S I G E V O S U M M E R S C H O O L *

For GECCO students!
We have grants to ease your participation!

.......... *Held along with ACM GECCO 2017 Conference* ..........

July 14-20-21 (plus activities in July 15-19) BERLIN


>>> *Only 30 positions are available for students*: tell us on your
participation during the registration process of GECCO 2017 <<<

*Call for Participation*


SIGEVO is a special interest group of ACM always looking for new ways to
improve the research and learning on genetic and evolutionary computation.

In this quest for disseminating the knowledge and making activities in
this domain we will organize, for the first time, a Summer School around
GECCO 2017 in Berlin: S3 (Sigevo Summer School).


We seek for PhD students to participate in this great event, offering:

1. One day before GECCO (July 14th), with lectures and interactions to
world class researchers in this domain.

2. Two days after GECCO (July 20th and 21st) of discussions,
presentations, and joint works.

3. Oriented interactions and learning in tutorials and sessions of GECCO.

4. Great networking opportunities and up to 6 awards to recognize
outstanding performance.


The many appealing activities during S3 will include:

- A first day (get together) where students will meet each other, form
groups, and listen to short lessons. An assignment will be done to
students and links for a close interaction to mentors will be created
for the whole school and conference duration.

- Questions, competitions and awards (economic plus diploma prizes) will
be offered to the students who perform the best, granted at the end of
the summer school. We have up to 6 awards in different categories: come
and participate!

- Opportunities to attend a big number of high quality GECCO tutorials
plus continuous interaction to the summer school staff and mentors, what
will raise the abilities and vision of students: don't miss this.

- The first day after GECCO, students will discuss with mentors, so as
to finish their assignments. Also, the staff in S3 will evaluate during
this day the solution to the questions made the first day and offer, on
the very last day, the results and winners.

- The last day of the summer school (two days after GECCO) students will
present their assignments to the whole board of mentors. Enjoy this
boosting to your knowledge, your PhD thesis, and your networking to this
community!


*STUDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO:*

- Attend *ALL* the 1+2 days of S3, plus attending some tutorials and
sessions of GECCO 2017.

- Have a valid registration to GECCO itself, plus a small fee of 100
euros to participate in the school.

- Fulfill an assignment, participate in the school challenges, and
follow the standards of proper social and research behavior.


Students of the S3 will be eligible for travel, register and lodging
grants of GECCO.

See the special section on S3 that will appear soon in the web page of
GECCO: http://gecco-2017.sigevo.org/index.html/Summer+School

a historical building belonging to the University of Milan.

Following the tradition of previous CTWs, a special issue of
Discrete Applied Mathematics will be devoted to a selection of papers
on topics related to the themes of the workshop (graph theory,
combinatorial optimization and the design and analysis of algorithms).

All interested researchers are invited to contribute to this special issue.
Submissions of contributions not presented at the workshop are also welcome.

All articles will be thoroughly refereed according to the high standards of
Discrete Applied Mathematics.

The full papers must be submitted through the Elsevier Editorial System

specify
that the paper is a contribution for the Special Issue of CTW 2016,
so that your paper is assigned to the guest editors. Please see the
Author Instructions on the site if you have not yet submitted a paper
through this web-based system. Be sure to note that your work is intended
for the Special Issue and to select the article type SI: CTW 2016.

Subject: [DMANET] Open PhD Position in the DFG priority program
"Cyber-Physical,Networking (SPP 1914)
Message-ID: <8860570c-14e0-46f7-2b26-f59ec916e2ed@uni-koblenz.de>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8

The Faculty of Computer Science at the University of Koblenz-Landau, Campus
Koblenz, Computer Networks Group, is inviting applications for a

PhD Position (research fellow)
(3 years, full time)

for working within the DFG priority program "Cyber-Physical Networking
(SPP 1914)". The position is to be filled as soon as possible, limited to 3
years and is subject to the German law on fixed-term contracts in science
(WissZeitVG). Salary will be according to the German public service salary
scale TV-L EGr. 13.


Topic:

The prospective research assistant will be responsible for the project
"analysis and synthesis of combined cooperative control and topology control
over wireless network models". This is a joint project between the Computer
Networks Group at the University of Koblenz-Landau and the Institute of
Control Systems at the Hamburg-Harburg Technical University. At both sites
one PhD student is supposed to work in this project context. The PhD student
employed at the University of Koblenz-Landau will research appropriate
adaptation of the time-varying wireless communication graph in multi-agent
systems. Such multi-agent systems are for example autonomous AUV or UAV
robot swarms. Of particular interest are topology control schemes to
maintain the highest level of algebraic connectivity (a condition for
performance and robustness of cooperative control) while reducing the number
of message losses due to interference (modeled in this project with the SINR
model). Focus is on distributed and local solutions with the goal to support
any system scale.
The effectiveness of the developed topology control schemes and their
interaction with distributed control will be evaluated by simulation studies
on some selected distributed control scenarios (e.g. distributed source
seeking based on robot swarms).


Requirements:

We expect:
- An above-average completed scientific university study, preferably in the
area of computer science or mathematics (M.Sc or Diploma).
- Ability to carry out independent scientific work
- Skills to mathematically proof theoretical claims
- Interests to do research in the area of algorithms and graphs
- Very good proficiency in written and spoken English

It is the policy of the University Koblenz-Landau to increase the percentage
of female employees. If equally qualified, preference will be given to
female applicants in fields where they are underrepresented. Disabled
candidates are given priority, if equally qualified. International
candidates are highly encouraged to apply.

Applicants should send their documents (curriculum vitae, qualifications
etc.) quoting the reference number Ko-44/2016, before Jan-31-2017 either by
regular mail to Universität Koblenz-Landau, Ref. K 21 Personal,
Organisation, Wahlen, Universitätsstr. 1, 56070 Koblenz or by email to
bewerbung-fb4@uni-koblenz.de. Applications after the deadline will be
considered as long as the position is not filled.

We do not send a confirmation of receipt. In accordance to the protection of
data privacy all documents will be destroyed after the application
procedure.
