Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) in the computer science laboratory LIF
(http://www.lif.univ-mrs.fr/) of Aix-Marseille University. The research
will be done in the Algorithms Combinatorics and Operations Research
group with Pierre Bonami. The postdoc could start as soon as September
2011 and will be funded for one year in the context of a "Google
Research Award".
The goal of the postdoc is to conduct research in the area of MINLP.
Ideally, the research should have both theoretical and computational
aspects and should lead to the development of new open-source codes for
addressing MINLPs or to the improvement of existing ones (Bonmin,
Couenne,...).
The position is open to candidates of any nationality and the selection
will be based on the candidates research records and their potential to
make a significant contribution in the context of the postdoc.
Applicants, should hold a Ph.D. in optimization or operations research
and have a background in integer programming and/or nonlinear
programming. A good knowledge of computer programming (C/C++) and
previous experience in programming with optimization software (CPLEX,
COIN-OR, XPRESS,...) would be a big plus. Of course, ideally, previous
works in MINLP would also be suitable.
Applicants should apply by email to pierre.bonami@lif.univ-mrs.fr by
sending a curriculum vitae, a cover letter and the names of references.
