Postdoctoral Position in Algorithms
Humboldt University Berlin

A postdoctoral position in the area of efficient algorithms is available
in the Department of Computer Science at Humboldt University Berlin
under the direction of Prof. Susanne Albers.

The postdoc may pursue his/her own line of research but a research
interest in approximation and online algorithms, algorithmic game theory
or algorithm engineering is very welcome. Information about the
algorithms group at Humboldt University can be found at:
http://www2.informatik.hu-berlin.de/alkox/group/
There exist close collaborations with various other research groups in
Berlin, hosted at the Free University and the Berlin Institute of
Technology.

The position is supported by a grant of the German Research Foundation
and provides a competitive 12 month salary with standard benefits. The
appointment is initially for one year and can be renewed for a second
year subject to satisfactory progress and mutual agreement. The expected
start date of the position is January 2011.

The successful candidate should have a PhD degree in computer science or
mathematics. The application material should include (1) a cover letter
describing the interest in the position, (2) a CV and list of
publications, (3) a short research summary, and (4) the names and
contact information of at least two references. The material should be
