a postdoctoral position in distributed processing with applications to rapid
earthquake detection and response. For more information about the project,
please visit our website at http://pangea.stanford.edu/QCN/. Candidates must be
proficient with C and C++. Priority will be given to those with experience in
distributed computing, particularly with Berkeley Open Infrastructure for
Network Computing (BOINC!) or equivalent. Additional beneficial skills include
database management, numerical analysis, parallel programming, and theoretical
seismology.
Applicants should send a CV and the names of three references to Professor Jesse Lawrence, Attn. Lauren Nelson, Department of Geophysics, 397 Panama Mall, Mitchell Building 360, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305-2215, (lmnelson@stanford.edu). Applications will be accepted until November 1st.
The initial term will be for one year with the potential for renewal for up to three years. Stanford University is an equal-opportunity employer and does not discriminate based on race, sex, age, physical condition, or country of national origin.
