Postdoc Opening

Dear Colleagues,

The Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Michigan State
University has an open postdoctoral fellow position for two NSF funded
projects on designing advanced high-speed algorithms for packet processing
systems. One project focuses on packet classification algorithms for quickly
processing packet headers. The other project focuses on developing deep
packet inspection algorithms and architectures for parsing and extracting
information from application protocol flows. The two principal investigators
are Professor Alex Liu and Professor Eric Torng. For the style of the
research that we have done, please refer to
http://www.cse.msu.edu/~alexliu/. The postdoc position would start as early
as August 2010 and last for a minimum of one year, with extensions possible
based on research performance and availability of funds. Salary to be
determined based upon qualifications.

Qualified candidates should meet the following requirements:
1. Strong publication record in top conferences and journals.
2. Be proficient in the design, analysis, and optimization of algorithms.
3. Be proficient in programming. Familiarity with C# and F# is preferred.
4. Have taken compiler courses.

Application materials include:
(1) A brief cover letter highlighting your qualifications
(2) A CV
(3) The link to candidate's homepage where most significant papers are
available
(4) Contact information for 3 references.

All application materials should be sent directly to Professor Alex Liu:
alexliu@cse.msu.edu and Professor Eric Torng: torng@msu.edu.

Please forward this message to researchers who may be interested. Thank you
very much for your attention.
