Algorithms Postdoc position (Aarhus, Denmark)

Algorithms/Database Postdoc Position at University of Aarhus, Denmark

A postdoctoral position at the level of Research Assistant Professor of
Computer Science is available at the Department of Computer Science,
University of Aarhus, Denmark (http://www.daimi.au.dk/). The position,
under the supervision of Professor Lars Arge
(http://www.daimi.au.dk/~large), is in the project entitled "Algorithms
for Processing Massive Datasets: Theory and Practice" funded by the Danish
National Science Research Council. The position is for one year, starting
September 2005 or later. Applications are welcomed from researchers with
clearly demonstrated experience and skills in the design and analysis of
algorithms and data structures and/or in spatial databases. Algorithms
applicants with experience with external memory, cache-oblivious and
spatial database algorithms, as well as with implementation of such
algorithms (algorithms engineering experience), will be preferred.

The responsibilities of the candidate include work on external memory and
cache-oblivious geometric data structures (spatial indexes), as well as on
external memory algorithms for various problems on massive terrain models.
The candidate is also expected to play a vital role in algorithm
engineering work (including interacting with practitioners), as well as in
the general development of the TPIE programming environment for external
memory computation. Modest teaching responsibilities will also be
expected.

Please send a letter of interest and your CV, as well as at least two
names of referees for recommendations, by mail or email to:
