We offer one postdoctoral fellowship for researchers in the broad area of information theory, with special emphasis on interactive communications. Specific topics of interest include communications with noisy feedback, iterative-refinement coding for two-way channels, interactive coding and its relations to dynamical systems and stochastic control, resource-limited interactive communications, distributed function computation, and combinatorial aspects of communications. The research will be conducted in collaboration with Prof. Ofer Shayevitz and his group, and is funded by a grant from the European Research Council (ERC).
The position is available starting October 2017 or later, for a period of up to two years. Applicants should hold a PhD in either electrical engineering, computer science, or mathematics, and are expected to have a strong background in information theory or closely related fields. Remuneration is highly competitive and commensurate with skills and track record. To apply, please send your CV along with a short statement of research interests to Prof. Ofer Shayevitz at [email protected] .
