[DMANET] Postdoc position in theoretical computer science at University of Edinburgh

A postdoc position in theoretical computer science is available at the
School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh. The position is funded
by the EPSRC Grant "Sublinear algorithms for approximating probability
distributions",
held by Ilias Diakonikolas.

The goal of the project is to advance a research program of developing
efficient algorithms
for estimating a wide range of natural and important classes of
probability distributions.

Candidates should have a strong background in theoretical computer
science, mathematics or statistics, and a strong publication record.
Candidates should also have a PhD, or be close to completion of a PhD.

The application deadline is April 18, 2014, and the application link is
