SISL Postdoc at CalTech "Information Flow in networks", Deadline: Jan 15, 2007

Caltech's Social and Information Sciences Laboratory is seeking 
applications for the SISL Postdoctoral Fellowship Program. SISL is an 
interdisciplinary effort comprising engineers, computer scientists, and 
economists at Caltech.
  SISL is dedicated to the study of information flow and aggregation in 
(large) distributed systems, such as social networks, markets, computer 
networks, voting systems, and other mechanisms.  We are particularly 
interested among other things, in game theory or economic theory applied 
to information networks, combinatorial or algorithmic mechanism design, 
and dynamics.  SISL post-docs are provided with systematic contacts with 
Caltech faculty but are generally free to pursue their own research 
interests.  More information is available at http://www.ist.caltech.edu/ 
and http://www.sisl.caltech.edu/

Electronic (pdf) copies of your curriculum vitae, publication list, 
statement of research interests, one or two publications, and three 
letters of recommendation are required. The deadline for receipt of all 
application materials is January 15, 2007.
