The distributed computing group at the department of information technology and electrical engineering at ETH Zurich is looking for
Research Assistants / Ph.D. Students in Distributed Algorithms
The distributed computing group is a young research group. Currently we are ten members. We are interested in a variety of hot topics in the area of distributed computing, such as distributed algorithms, peer-to-peer computing, wireless ad hoc or sensor networks, multi-core systems, or social and mobile networks. In our group we try to apply and unite the approaches and techniques of algorithmic theory and
systems implementation. Some members of our group focus on algorithms and analysis, some on systems design and building. All of us work together to build scalable, fault-tolerant, and efficient primitives and applications for the distributed future of computing. Please visit the group web site for more information.
We are looking for new members with a strong algorithmic background, and a Master's degree in e.g. Computer Science or Mathematics. A candidate should be attracted by and proficient in areas such as approximation algorithms, complexity theory, distributed algorithms, graph theory, online computation, computational geometry,
probabilistic algorithms, combinatorics, or optimization. A new group member can choose and shape a project according to his or her interests and talents within the first months of employment. Successful candidates are expected to work towards a doctoral degree, and participate in the teaching activities of the group. To get a
better understanding of these open positions, please visit our web page, and have a look at our theoretical publications, i.e. publications at conferences such as FOCS, PODC, SPAA, SODA, or STOC.
Additional information about the positions may be obtained on our website at www.disco.ethz. ch.
Applications must include a CV and a proof of algorithmic interests, e.g. a student thesis. The research group aims to increase the number of women in scientific positions. Female candidates are therefore encouraged to apply. The positions will remain open until suitable candidates are found and the starting dates may be arranged individually. We look forward to receiving your application!
