[DMANET] One PostDoc position (40 hours/week) at JKU Linz, Austria

One 1-year PostDoc position (40 hours/week, all genders welcome) within
the project "MOSOPT - Solving Multi-Objective Facility Layout Problems
via Semidefinite Optimization" is available at the Institute of
Production and Logistics Management at the Johannes Kepler University
Linz, Austria.

The project concerns the development of solution methods for
combinatorial multi-objective programs with semidefinite programming
(SDP) relaxations. It is funded by the Linz Institute of Technology
(LIT). The earliest possible starting date is January 1, 2023. The gross
salary is 4,061.50 per month (14 times a year). Participation and
presentations at scientific conferences are expected and will be funded.

Candidates interested the above position should have
* a PhD in Mathematics, Operations Research, Computer Science or a
related field
* programming skills (e.g., C++, Python, MATLAB, Julia, ...)
* experience in the implementation of (optimization) algorithms
* profound knowledge in one or more of the following fields:
semidefinite programming, multi-objective programming, mixed-integer
programming, combinatorial optimization
* a strong interest in all areas of the research project
Applications from excellent candidates from other fields within discrete
mathematics are also very welcome.

If you are interested in working in a young international research team
at one of the nicest campus universities in Austria, please send the
following documents
* motivation letter (including the date of finishing the PhD and the
title of the PhD thesis)
* detailed CV
* certificates
* list of bachelor, master and PhD courses and grades
* PhD thesis (if in another language than English, an abstract in
English with at most three pages)
to elisabeth.gaar@jku.at with the subject "Application MOSOPT", until
December 14, 2022. In addition a confidential letter of reference by a
professor should be sent directly by the professor to
elisabeth.gaar@jku.at until December 14, 2022. For further information
please contact Elisabeth Gaar (elisabeth.gaar@jku.at).

The Johannes Kepler University wishes to increase the proportion of
