other members of the Algorithms and Complexity Group
(https://www.ac.tuwien.ac.at/). There are essentially no teaching
obligations associated with the position and the working language in
the group is English. The starting date is flexible and the position
is offered for 2 years, with a possibility for extension. The salary
will follow the FWF's salary tables for Postdocs (see
https://www.fwf.ac.at/en/research-funding/personnel-costs/) and

[DMANET] Junior Professor Chair (CPJ) at UCA, LIMOS : Models and Algorithms for AI

The University Clermont Auvergne (UCA) in Clermont-Ferrand, France is offering a CPJ position (Junior Professor Chair) that will be available by September 2023.

Junior Professor Chairs (JPC) correspond to a new program in France that offers highly qualified young researchers an opportunity to conduct quality research through the creation of a dedicated environment (material and financial). They provide a real professional leverage that can lead to a permanent position as a full professor within 5 years, while also promoting the establishment of a genuine international synergy with the stakeholders involved.

The selected candidate will be involved in research activities as part of the LIMOS (limos.fr), a CNRS laboratory, and will also be in charge of teaching at the engineering school ISIMA of Clermont Auvergne INP (https://www.isima.fr, https://www.clermont-auvergne-inp.fr).

This chair aims to develop a research activity around models and algorithms for AI by placing it within a data-knowledge continuum. At the heart of AI lies the algorithmics of learning. Beyond the design of new methods, particularly in a weakly supervised context, several research directions are being explored, such as explainability. Defining effective learning methods based on optimization techniques and game theory is also a promising research target. Finally, the question of the formal representation of knowledge opens the way to research on interactions between symbolic AI approaches and learning from data.
This ambitious and unifying project lies at the intersection of several themes of the LIMOS and connects with those of other laboratories in the area. The research questions are anchored in the "Data" cross-cutting program of the ISite CAP2025 and will draw on the application domains of the ISite's International Research Centers.

The teaching service will be 64 hours per year and will focus on the algorithmics of Artificial Intelligence and its applications.

For this specific position at UCA, the first phase of the contract is for five years during which the successful candidate will receive funding of 200,000 euros for their research activities, including the recruitment of a doctoral and postdoctoral student. The salary during this period will be 3,443.50 euros per month (before deductions for taxes) which makes it around 2,600 euros per month (after taxes).
At the end of the five-year period, and after a successful evaluation by a tenure commission, the CPJ can lead to a permanent position as a full professor.

Additional informations regarding the application procedure and schedule will be communicated later.

[DMANET] Save the Date - IWOBIP 2024

Save the Date - IWOBIP 2024

The International Workshop on Bilevel Optimization will be held at
Universidad de O'Higgins, Rancagua, Chile, between the 22nd and 26th of
January 2024. IWOBIP'24 aims to bring together a group of academics,
practitioners, and students working on bilevel optimization. It is also
meant to attract young researchers and graduated students (master's and
Ph.D. students) who specialize in Bilevel Programming.

Bilevel Programming is a branch of optimization that deals with programs
whose constraints embed an auxiliary optimization problem. Bilevel programs
are pervasive and are commonly found in several real-world problems. This
includes problems in transportation, energy, economics, decision science,
environmental economics, etc.

IWOBIP'24 will consist of plenary lectures and mini-courses given by
world-renowned researchers. The mini-courses will be given by Margarida
Carvalho and Martin Schmidt. The confirmed plenary speakers will be Ted
Ralphs, Alain Jean-Marie, and Claudia D'Ambrossio.

The topics of interest of the IWOBIP' 24 are theory, exact methods,
heuristic algorithms, and interesting applications modeled as bilevel
programming problems. A CFP will be released in May.

See you in Chile!

[DMANET] Open PhD Position in Computer Science at Jönköping University

Jönköping University advertises one (1) position as PhD student in Computer Science, in collaboration with the laboratory of theoretical computer science, Linköping university. The PhD student will join a research project situated at the intersection of artificial intelligence, complexity theory, and universal algebra, directed by Johannes Schmidt (Jönköping university) and Victor Lagerkvist (Linköping university). In short, the task is to study fine-grained complexity of NP-hard problems of interest in nonmonotonic reasoning, by constructing fast (but likely superpolynomial) algorithms, proving lower bounds under reasonable conjectures in complexity theory, and adapt and develop the influential algebraic approach based on the existence of (partial) symmetries of relations.

The application deadline is April 17. For further information visit https://ju.varbi.com/se/what:job/jobID:601050/where:4/

_About this Issue_

Geometric Semantic Genetic Programming (GSGP) is a form of Genetic
Programming which is guaranteed to see a simple unimodal fitness
landscape with constant slope for any supervised machine learning task.
It was derived using a rigorous geometric theory of representations and
search operators combined with the notion of semantics of programs. In
GSGP, crossover and mutation have special semantic properties: offspring
programs are guaranteed to have behaviour intermediate to their
parents', and mutant programs' behaviour is guaranteed to be similar to
that of the original program. The theory of GSGP reveals a simple
genotype-phenotype map between syntax and semantics of programs, leads
to simple syntactic implementations of these semantic search operators,
and provides a rigorous explanatory framework for its superior runtime
performance.

Since its inception in 2012 [1], GSGP has been rapidly and widely
adopted by the Genetic Programming community at large: it has been
studied, both theoretically and empirically, successfully adopted in
many real-world application domains, improved and extended in many ways,
and led to a plethora of research publications by many research groups
worldwide.

We aim to celebrate the 10th anniversary of GSGP with a special issue
that consolidates and organises the ten years of work on GSGP by the
research community, and fosters further growth of this research area. We
envision that the special issue will cover a historical development of
the field and related areas, report on latest research as well as
identify challenges and reflections about future directions.

[DMANET] [GECCO 2023] CFP for Workshop on Strict Box-Constraint Optimization Studies (SBOX-COST)

***********************************************************

CALL FOR PAPERS

***********************************************************

GECCO 2023 Workshop on

Strict Box-Constraint Optimization Studies (SBOX-COST)

The Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO 2023)

July 15-19, 2023, Lisbon, Portugal.

Webpage: https://sbox-cost.github.io

***********************************************************

## About the workshop

Benchmarking plays a critical role in the design and development of
optimization algorithms. The way in which benchmark suites are set up thus
influences the set of algorithms recommended to practitioners and biases the
goals of algorithm designers. The focus of this workshop is on benchmarking
algorithms on problems with box constraints (i.e. upper and lower limits on
the input variables defining the domain of the search space). In practical
applications, evaluating points outside of the domain is often impossible,
or not sensible, and as such, should be avoided. However, in benchmarking as
practiced today, problems are well-defined even outside of the stated
parameter ranges, which translates to the algorithms being able to safely
ignore these ranges and operate on infeasible solutions.

Setting up box constraints represents the simplest type of constraints and
gives rise to the so-called box-constrained problems. In this workshop, we
will discuss in more detail how the presence of box-constraints impacts the
performance of optimization algorithms and provide participants with a new
variant of the BBOB suite called SBOX-COST for continuous, single-objective,
noiseless optimization.

Two types of submissions will be accepted for this workshop:

1. Short papers (up to 4 pages) reporting results of new or existing
algorithms on the provided BBOB SBOX-COST suite of (box-constrained) test
functions. Please refer to the following link for the data and instructions
on how to use it: https://github.com/sbox-cost/Examples

2. Longer papers (up to 8 pages) discussing aspects related to the presence
of box-constraints.

Topics of interest (but not limited to) include:

. New insights of existing algorithms when applied to box-constrained
problems

. Performance analysis and visualization of algorithms on the provided BBOB
SBOX-COST suite of test functions

. Algorithm design for box-constrained problems

. Metrics for benchmarking algorithm performance on and complexity of
box-constrained problems

. Other aspects of box-constrained benchmarking optimization algorithms

## Submission

[DMANET] [GECCO CFP] EC+DM@GECCO 2023 - Workshop on Evolutionary Computation and Decision Making

***********************************************************

CALL FOR PAPERS

***********************************************************

Workshop on Evolutionary Computation and Decision Making (EC+DM) at the
Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO), July 15-19, 2023,
Lisbon, Portugal. Please note that the conference will be held as a hybrid
conference.

Workshop webpage:
http://blogs.exeter.ac.uk/ecmcdm/

***********************************************************

About the workshop

Solving real-world optimisation problems typically involve an expert or
decision-maker. Decision making tools have been found to be useful in
several such applications e.g., health care, education, environment,
transportation, business, and production. In recent years, there has also
been growing interest in merging Evolutionary Computation (EC) and
decision-making techniques for several applications. This has raised amongst
others the need to account for explainability, fairness, ethics and privacy

*3-5 October, 2023, Turin*
*Website: https://itc35.itc-conference.org/*

/_*CALL FOR PAPERS*_/

/The International Teletraffic Congress (ITC) 35, to be held October
3-5, 2023 at Politecnico di Torino, Italy, is the 35th edition of this
international flagship congress in the field of networking science and
practice. ITC was founded back in 1955 by enthusiastic scientists and
engineers who were willing to deploy networks in a holistic way. Since
then, it has established a multi-decade tradition as the primary forum
for presenting and discussing the latest technical advances in the broad
areas of teletraffic models, network systems, and measurements.
ITC 35 solicits cutting-edge papers spanning both theory and
experimentation in all areas of networking, ranging from traffic
engineering and control with application also to emerging
softwarized/virtualized network paradigms, up to innovative wireless
scenarios brought about by the emergence of B5G and IoT systems. ITC 35
especially encourages original contributions which bridge the gap
between performance modeling and real-life operational aspects,
including works which leverage measurement data to provide a better
understanding of the wired and wireless networks' operation under
realistic conditions. A selection of the best papers presented at the
conference will be fast tracked to Performance Evaluation and Computer
Networks journals after the conference.
ITC 35 will offer a number of _*student travel grants*_ to support
full-time students for attending._*

[DMANET] [DEADLINE APPROACHING] ACM SNTA’23 - The Sixth Workshop on Systems and Network Telemetry and Analytics

The Sixth Workshop on Systems and Network Telemetry and Analytics (ACM
SNTA'23)
in conjunction with ACM HPDC 2023 (http://www.hpdc.org/2023/)
Orlando, Florida, United States, June 16 - 23, 2023

Scope:

The tasks of systems and network telemetry are a key element for
effective operations and management of HPC and distributed computing
systems, by offering comprehensive measurement and analysis capabilities
to provide the visibility into what is occurring at any time. The tasks
will be significantly complicated with the greater complexity of
computing systems, increasing network speed, and the newly introduced
mobile and IoT devices. Such changes will render the existing telemetry
and analysis techniques outdated, and more scalable techniques may be in
place for data-driven and deeper data analysis. In addition to the
quantitative and qualitative challenges, data pressure in systems and
networks also comes from various sources such as sensors, computing
systems, networking and security devices, and other emerging computing
elements speaking with different syntax and semantics, which makes
organizing and incorporating the generated data difficult for extensive
analysis.

This workshop aims at bridging the systems and network measurement and
the latest advances in artificial intelligence and data science
technologies, to advance the performance and reliability of HPC and
distributed systems. New analysis techniques are needed in the modern
world, from the diverse angles of systems/network performance,
availability, and security. For example, real-time streaming analytics
algorithms and methods need to be explored for estimating network
performance and summarizing the traffic variables to capture the network
activities due to the network bandwidth increase. Multivariate analysis
of telemetric variables may be able to provide an intuitive,
comprehensive view of the systems and network dynamics. New logging
techniques are also needed in the future with the latest development in
the storage and archival technologies. In addition, many applications in
this area may need to address the application-specific requirements and
challenges. This workshop intends to share visions of investigating new
approaches and methods at the intersection of data sciences and
HPC/distributed computing systems.

Topic of interest (but not limited to):

- Systems and network measurement, analysis, and summarization
- Data-driven, multivariate, streaming-based data processing
- Distributed and federated machine learning
- Cybersecurity, forensics, privacy, and anonymization
- Smart instruments, edge/fog-systems, and IoTs
- Wireless, sensor, 5G/6G networks measurement and analysis
- Software/knowledge-defined-* technologies
- Advances in network and storage technologies
- Intelligent workflow, visualization, and applications
- Performance modeling, analysis, and engineering
- Design and evaluation of HPC and distributed systems
- Best practices and implementations tied to systems/network data analysis

Important dates:

Submission deadline: March 31, 2023
Author notification: April 14, 2023
Camera-ready deadline: May 2, 2023

Paper submission:

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another
journal or conference. Authors are invited to submit either a full (max
8 pages) paper or a short/work-in-progress (max 4 pages) paper. Papers
will be peer-reviewed, and accepted papers will be published in the
workshop proceedings as part of the ACM digital library.
