[DMANET] Postdoctoral Positions in Algorithms - Professor Ely Porat's Research Group

New full time postdoctoral positions are available in the *Modern Pattern
Matching (MPM) Algorithms Group *at the *Department of Computer Science of
Bar-Ilan university, Israel.*

The main fields of the group research are *algorithms analysis, data
structures, distributed computation algorithms, graph algorithms, big data
algorithms and computer science theory.*

The group is led by Professor* Ely Porat,* includes several postdoctoral
researchers and PhD students,and has very close work relations with other
faculty members in the field (among them *Prof. Amihood Amir, Prof. Moshe
Lewenstein, Prof. Liam Roditty, Dr. Tzvi Kopelowitz *and* Dr. Arnold
Filtser*).

The group also includes some guest professors; For example, during the
passing year, *p**rofessor Seth Pettie from the University of Michigan*
spent half a year as a full time researcher in the group and *professor
Arseny Shur from the **Ural Federal University* has joined the group as a
guest researcher for the coming years.

The group has very good international partnerships and many good
cooperations with researchers around the world. It is worth noticing the
significant common work with *professor Cliff Stein *from Columbia
University, which has done a lot of common work and mutual visits and
meetings with members of the group.

We are looking for researchers in a *mature stage of their academi*c
capabilities, with a *Ph.D. degree* in *Computer Science* or *Mathematics*
and with *strong publication record in Theoretical Computer Science*. Our
threshold for applicants is at least three papers accepted to top tier
conferences (e.g. STOC, FOCS or SODA).

The positions will be for an *initial year* with the *possibility of
extension*.
The postdoc may pursue his/her own line of research but a focus related to
the existing research areas of the group is very welcome.

Please send your application (including a cover letter, a curriculum vitae,
a list of publications, and the names and contact information of at least
two references) to recruit.postdoc@datalab.cs.biu.ac.il.
Please attach relevant documents as pdf files.
