Two postdoctoral fellowships in connection with the research programme Parallel Algorithms for Computational Nano-Science are available for a year, starting as early as possible.

The topic of the research programme is to develop, implement and test new scalable algorithms for the massively parallel execution of quantum chemistry software aimed at simulating nano-structures relevant for emerging electronic devices. The research programme is a collaboration between the Computer Science Department at University of Copenhagen (DIKU), the Informatics and Mathematical Modeling Department (IMM), Technical University of Denmark and Atomistix A/S.

The post docs will be part of a research team consisting of three Ph.D.students, faculty members of the university departments and researchers from the company Atomistix A/S. Furthermore the post docs will have the opportunity of interacting with leading research groups in quantum chemistry in Denmark, e.g. at the Nano-Science Center at University of Copenhagen.

Applicants should have a Ph.D. degree in computer science, physics or chemistry and a strong background in parallel computing and/or quantum chemistry/ electronic structure theory.

Applications are accepted until March 9, 2007. Further information is available from Stig Skelboe, DIKU, tel: +45 3532 1449, e-mail: stig@diku.dk.
