Two postdoctoral positions in algorithms and lower bounds, Bristol (U.K.)

There are two postdoctoral positions available at the the Department of Computer Science of the University of Bristol, UK, in a major new EPSRC funded project concerned with the development of new algorithms and data structures as well as provable time and space lower bounds for pattern matching in dynamically changing as well as streaming data.

Both posts will require a high level of expertise in areas which may include but not be limited to data structures/algorithms, probability and discrete mathematics. Particularly strong expertise in other related areas of mathematics will also be positively considered. Although some previous knowledge of pattern matching algorithms may be beneficial, it is *not* a requirement for the jobs.

Appointments will be made at Research Assistant or Research Associate depending on skills and experience. The posts are funded for three years.

Closing date for applications: 6 February 2013. More details as well as the application forms are available at http://www.bris.ac.uk/jobs/find/details.html?nPostingTargetID=1561 and http://www.cs.bris.ac.uk/Research/Algorithms/. Informal enquires can be made to Dr Raphael Clifford at Raphael.Clifford at bristol.ac.uk.
