IBM Research Goldstine Postdoctoral Fellowship in Mathematical Sciences 

The Mathematical Sciences Department of the IBM T. J. Watson Research 
Center invites applications for its 2003-2004 Herman Goldstine 
Postdoctoral Fellowship for research in mathematical and computer 
sciences. The fellowship provides scientists of outstanding ability 
an opportunity to advance their scholarship as resident department 
members at the Research Center. The department provides an atmosphere 
in which basic research is combined with work on technical problems 
arising in industry.  The Research Center is located in Westchester 
County, less than an hour north of New York City. 
 
The Mathematical Sciences Department does research in pure and applied 
mathematics and in theoretical and exploratory computer science. Areas 
of current research include: Optimization (discrete, continuous, and 
stochastic); Algorithms (approximation, randomized, and on-line); 
Probability Theory (including applications in finance, queueing, 
stochastic models, and risk management); Statistics; Supply-Chain 
Management (optimization and performance modelling); Dynamical Systems 
and Differential Equations; Knowledge Discovery, Data Mining, and 
Machine Learning; Scientific Computation (including numerical analysis, 
linear algebra, and parallel and high-performance computing); 
Cryptography; Coding Theory; and Economics (including auctions, decision 
theory, game theory, and experimental economics). Please visit 
http://www.research.ibm.com/math for additional information about 
the department.

Close interaction with permanent department members is expected, 
but fellows are free to pursue their own research interests. 

One fellowship will be awarded. Candidates must have a doctorate and 
no more than five years of postdoctoral professional experience (with 
a preference for less) when the fellowship commences. The fellowship 
has a period of one year, and may be extended another year by mutual 
agreement. The stipend is from $85,000 to $95,000, depending on 
experience, plus an allowance for moving expenses. 

The deadline for applications is December 12, 2002.
