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.
