Postdoc offer

• Two postdoctoral offers in the conext of NLAFET H2020 project:  We are inviting applications for two postdoctoral positions that are open in our group Alpines at Inria in Paris, France.  The successfull candidates will join NLAFET, a project funded by the European Commission and involving Inria, Umea University, University of Manchester and STFC/RAL.  They will conduct research on iterative solvers and robust preconditioners aiming at a significant reduction of communication and thus suitable for future and emerging large scale computers.  The algorithms developed will be validated on several applications targetted by NLAFET, such as computational fluid dynamics, astrophysics and graph problems.The candidates should have a PhD in applied mathematics or computer science and expertise in numerical linear algebra and/or high performance computing.  For the graph theory subject, experience in analysis of large graphs is a plus.To apply, please send your detailed CV to Laura.Grigori@inria.fr and nataf@ljll.math.upmc.fr and arrange for two reference letters, which should be sent directly by the recommenders.  The positions are opened until filled, but for full consideration, the applications should be received on or before December 15, 2016.  The preferred start date is beginning of 2017.
