Academic Division:
Engineering.
Academic Department/Research Unit:
Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis,
Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, San Diego Supercomputer Center.
Disciplinary Specialty of Research:
Research on Complex Networks.
Description:
A postdoctoral research position is available at the Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis (CAIDA) at UCSD. The successful candidate will focus on the analysis of the Internet and other complex networks' topologies, and their efficiency with respect to different routing/navigation strategies, as well as other forms of information propagation processes that run on complex networks. The work will involve processing massive datasets of real network topologies, performing intensive simulations, and carrying out elaborate analytic calculations. This position supports an interdisciplinary
project between computer science/engineering and physics/mathematics, so both solid programming skills (C, Perl, etc.) as well as strong analytic skills are highly desirable; knowledge of MATLAB, Mathematica, etc., is a plus. The successful candidate will also perform other standard tasks, such as writing scientific papers, assisting in preparing research proposals, presenting at conferences, etc.
Salary/Stipend Information:
Salary will be based on published UC pay scales.
Skills and Knowledge Required:
A recent Ph.D. degree in computer science/engineering, physics, or mathematics; a convincing publication record; and strong programming and/or analytic skills.
Position Closing Date:
Open until filled.
Appointment Length/Period:
One year, with possible extensions.
