Postdoctoral position (3y) and PhD student position in symbolic algorithms, Bergen (Norway)

Symbolic algorithms are algorithms where the input data is represented implicitly. Such algorithms are particularly relevant in contexts where the data to be processed is too large to be specified in an explicit form. The Algorithms Group at the University of Bergen (Norway) has currently two open positions in the field of symbolic algorithms. These positions are financed by the project "Symbolic Algorithms: A Parameterized Approach", a 12 Million NOK research project funded by the Research Council of Norway under the Ground Breaking Research framework.
