Job offering

P h D S t u d e n t s and P o s t d o c s

Our group is seeking two research associates to start working as soon as
possible, but no later than December 2007. The salaries are in
accordance with TV-L E 13 (formerly BAT IIa) and are covered
by third-party funds as well as university means.

We are mainly looking for people interested in one of the following two
areas

* Route planning in road networks
In recent years we have developed the world-wide fastest algorithms
for exact route planning
in static networks. Now we are looking into generalizations to dynamic
scenarios, time dependency, multicriteria optimization, mobile
systems, ...

* Engineering the basic algorithmic toolbox
(data structures, sorting, basic graph algorithms, basic string
algorithms,...) We are interested in efficient implementations,
parallelization, memory hierarchy aspects, reusable libraries,
verification, ...

Exceptional candidates working in other areas of algorithmics are also
welcome to apply.

Prerequisites
- good to excellent diploma or Masters degree from a renowned
university
- solid education in algorithmics
- interest in both basic research and practical exploitation of
algorithmic ideas
