Ph.D. Research Opportunity in
PARALLEL ALGORITHMS & ECONOMETRICS
Applications are invited for a Ph.D. studentships (research
assistantship) in the Department of Computer Science, University of
Neuchatel and ETHZ, Switzerland.
The project aims to extend recent research in the development of
parallel algorithms and efficient numerical tools for solving
large-scale econometric estimation problems. The various aspects of
the research include:
o Development of numerically efficient methods for solving
econometric estimation problems.
o The computational efficient solution of the various matrix
problems arising in the estimation methods.
o Parallelization of the algorithms.
Research is expected to be pursued in the three areas listed above.
The weight of research carried out into each topic will depend on the
skills of the researcher(s).
Applicants should be able to demonstrate good knowledge in two of the
following: Parallel Computing, Numerical Linear Algebra, and
Econometrics & Statistics (Linear Models). The working language will
be English.
Requests for further details and application in the form of CV (plain
text sent by e-mail - NO word docs, postscript or pdf) should be
directed to:
