Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering
Melbourne School of Engineering
Salary: $56,226 - $76,299 p.a. (Level A)/$80,318 - $95,375 p.a. (Level B)
plus 9% superannuation. Pro rata where applicable.
These three positions, held in the Department of Computer Science and
Software Engineering, are part of three Australian Research Council Discovery
Projects:
* "Efficient and Effective Algorithms for Searching Strings in Secondary
Storage", supervised by Professor Alistair Moffat, Associate Professor
Andrew Turpin, Dr Anthony Wirth, Dr Simon Puglisi (RMIT University), and Dr
Shane Culpepper (RMIT University). The appointee will work with the
supervisors on the development and evaluation of algorithms for string
searching within large datasets that are principally stored on disk, and
will be required to design and implement methods arising from the research
project, and also measure them experimentally. This project is funded by the
Australian Research Council for the period 2011-2013, and an appointment
will be made for up to 2.5 years (Level A) or 2 years (Level B). [Account 51637]
* "Principles, Practice, and Pragmatics of Measurement in Experimental
Computer Science", supervised by Professor Justin Zobel, Professor Alistair
Moffat, Associate Professor Tim Baldwin, and Dr Aaron Harwood. The appointee
will work with the supervisors on experimental methodologies and techniques
as they apply to research in the computing sciences, with emphasis on the
areas of machine learning, machine translation, and parallel programming.
This project is funded by the Australian Research Council for the period
2011-2013, and an appointment will be made for up to 2.5 years (Level A) or
2 years (Level B). [Account 51638]
* "Efficient Synchronisation of Large Repositories", supervised by Dr
Anthony Wirth and Professor Justin Zobel. The appointee will work with the
supervisors on the development and evaluation of algorithms for
synchronising databases that are hosted at multiple sites. The appointee
will incorporate new search techniques, compression and coding algorithms,
and space-efficient data structures to process very large data sets. The
appointee will also design and carry out experiments to test the performance
and computational demands of the competing algorithms. This project is
funded by the Australian Research Council for the period 2010-2012, and an
appointment will be made for up to 1.5 years (Level A) or up to 1 year
(Level B). [Account 51627]
