nonlinear problems. Duties will include development and analysis of
algorithms and their implementation in a high-performance computing
environment. The start date is flexible, with the preference for
candidates who can begin promptly. The appointment is for a fixed
term of one year and will not be renewed. Opportunities for
teaching may be available, if desired by the successful
