Position announcement
The following position announcement might be of interest to readers of
the list. Note that the assistant professor position lists "theory of
distributed and concurrent systems", "abstract data types", and "data
and process algebra" as possible research areas.
The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) invites
applications for two positions:
1. Professor of Distributed Information Systems
Department of Computer Science / Communication
Systems Division
The new professor will develop a first-rate research and teaching program
in the area of distributed and/or mobile information systems. He/she will
also have a strong background in the underlying fundamentals of computer
science. Applications for appointments at the assistant, associate or full
professor levels will be considered. Please contact Prof. Claude
Petitpierre (+41.21.693.52.01, Claude.Petitpierre@epfl.ch) or Prof. Martin
Hasler for more information (+41.21.693.26.22, Martin.Hasler@epfl.ch).
2. Assistant Professor of Computer Science
Department of Computer Science
The new assistant professor will be active for example in areas like
theories of distributed or concurrent systems, abstract types, temporal
logic, data or process algebra, image and media servers (storage, access,
indexing, management of mass of data, distributed hierarchical services,
fault tolerance). He/she will have developed original theories, techniques
or methods. Please contact Prof. Claude Petitpierre for more information
(+41.21.693.52.01, Claude.Petitpierre@epfl.ch).
**
For the two positions, aptitudes for research will be demonstrated by the
publication of scientific articles in international journals and/or by
patents and professional achievements. The positions require teaching
talents and the capacity to guide students, Ph.D. students and young
researchers. A taste and talent for multidisciplinary collaborations are
essential. Industrial experience is an advantage. The new professor will be
expected to have an international network of scientific relations. He/she
will develop R&D projects in collaboration with industry.
The EPFL is a top, internationally minded Institute of Technology which
offers competitive salaries, substantial start-up packages and excellent
research and teaching facilities. The EPFL strongly invites women to apply.
