Carleton University has recently been awarded an industrial Chair position
supported  in part by industry and by the Natural Sciences and
Engineering Research Council of Canada.
The research program is in Application-Oriented
Parallel Computing with focus on geometric/spatial computing.

As a result, the School and  the chairholder, Joerg-R. Sack, are able
to offer several positions in areas related to  Parallel Computing
(and computational geometry).

(1) One tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor level
(2) One Research Associate Position  (for a total of five years)

      (geometric computing, algorithms in spatial domains)
  and/or
  (b) substantial (demonstrated) expertise in one of the
      following areas of application
              GIS, medical computing, spatial modelling, CAD/CAM
      (in addition to  computer science knowledge)

The research associates and post-doctoral fellows are term apointments
which would usually last for about 6-12 months each.

For any of the above positions, please send a CV to:
