From marc at cs.uu.nl Tue Nov 1 15:56:23 2005 From: marc at cs.uu.nl (Marc van Kreveld) Date: Mon Jan 9 13:41:22 2006 Subject: Two postdoc positions at Utrecht University Message-ID: <43678217.7060904@cs.uu.nl> Please forward these openings to interested candidates, like PhD students in computational geometry or a related area and who will complete their PhD requirements before Summer 2006. ---------------------------------------------------------------- At the Institute of Information and Computing Sciences of Utrecht University, there are two openings for POSTDOCs for 2.5 years in computational geometry on a project entitled GADGET: Geometric Algorithm Design for Geographic Environments funded by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO). The planned starting date for both postdocs is Spring or early Summer 2006. The project leader is dr. Marc van Kreveld, and research will be done at the Center for Geometry, Imaging and Virtual Environments (GIVE), headed by prof.dr. Mark Overmars. See http://www.give.nl/ Summary ------- One of the most important application areas of computational geometry is geographic information science (GIS). Geometric algorithms are needed for a variety of tasks, among which geographical analysis. Geographical analysis involves combination of, or further computation on spatial data sets to test hypotheses, compute measures and trends, or derive other information. It gives rise to a variety of computational problems that require the design of new algorithms. This proposal addresses such computational problems by designing these algorithms, complemented with efficiency analyses. An important aspect of the proposed research is the formalization of a concrete geographic task into an abstract geometric computation problem. Algorithm design for realistic geographical analysis leads to challenging new questions, since the problem statements involve more aspects than usual. The results of this project will be new formalizations and new geometric algorithms that solve such problems either exact, or with an approximation algorithm for which a performance can be proved. Geographical analysis is refined in three ways. Firstly, more realistic versions of analysis tasks are treated, for example, spatial interpolation and clustering with obstacles. Secondly, new types of information are computed, such as spatio-temporal patterns for data mining. Thirdly, geographical analyses are complemented by metadata, where the outcome also provides minimal and maximal values based on data imprecision. We offer -------- - A position as a postdoctoral researcher for two-and-a-half years, as part of a team consisting of two postdocs, the project leader (40%), and a scientific programmer. A related project involves two PhD students with whom collaboration is also desirable. - An interesting, internationally oriented working environment that specializes in computational geometry and its applications. See http://www.give.nl/ We look for computer scientists with a PhD degree and ---------------------------------------------------------- - Considerable knowledge of algorithms, preferably geometric algorithms, and several publications in this field - Interest in applications to the spatial sciences More information ---------------- Interested candidates can contact dr. M. van Kreveld (Marc), phone. +31 - 30 - 2534119, e-mail: marc@cs.uu.nl, for a more extensive project description. Applications consisting of an application letter and CV can be sent by e-mail to dr. M. van Kreveld, no later than November 30, 2005. ------------- The compgeom mailing lists: see http://netlib.bell-labs.com/netlib/compgeom/readme.html or send mail to compgeom-request@research.bell-labs.com with the line: send readme Now archived at http://www.uiuc.edu/~sariel/CG/compgeom/maillist.html.

This weeklong conference, sponsored jointly by the American Mathematical Society, the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, and the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, is scheduled to take place in Snowbird, Utah, starting on Sunday, June 18, and ending on Thursday, June 22, 2006. It constitutes the third conference in this decennial series, and at the same time marks the twentieth anniversary of the founding of the Springer journal Discrete & Computational Geometry. The program will consist of a number of invited addresses, as well as additional talks on ongoing or recent work, to be decided at the last minute. Limited support is available to participants. Since space itself is very limited, we urge you to indicate your interest as soon as you possibly can. The procedure for applying both for participation and support is spelled out on the AMS web page devoted to the conference: http://www.ams.org/meetings/src-conflist.html. Click on the third conference in the list, and follow the prompts. We hope to see you in Snowbird next June! Best regards, Jacob E. Goodman, Janos Pach, and Ricky Pollack P.S. If you have any students or postdocs who might be interested in attending, please pass this letter on to them, and let them know that there are some funds earmarked specifically for such support. ------------- The compgeom mailing lists: see http://netlib.bell-labs.com/netlib/compgeom/readme.html or send mail to compgeom-request@research.bell-labs.com with the line: send readme Now archived at http://www.uiuc.edu/~sariel/CG/compgeom/maillist.html.
