<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">We are looking for
professional and dedicated candidates to work for our
Optimisation group at SINTEF ICT in Oslo, in the department
of Applied Mathematics. The duration will be two years, with
the intention to make it a permanent position if all parties
are interested. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-GB">About us:</span></b><span
lang="EN-GB"> SINTEF is the largest independent research
organisation in Scandinavia. We create value through
knowledge generation, research and innovation, and develop
technological solutions that are brought into practical use.
We are a broadly based, multidisciplinary research institute
that possesses international top-level expertise in
technology, medicine, and the social sciences. SINTEF is an
independent, non-commercial organisation and our profits are
invested in new research, scientific equipment, and
development of novel expertise.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-GB">SINTEF Optimisation:</span></b><span
lang="EN-GB"> We are currently 14 researchers, some of whom
also work as software engineers. For the past 20 years, we
have been developing optimisation methods, software
prototypes, libraries, and components. We have built
expertise at an international level and have a good
publication record. Our group conducts basic and applied
research on planning, scheduling, routing, sequencing, and
timetabling problems. Our main market areas are
transportation: road, railway, maritime, and aviation;
healthcare; sports; and finance. We work with commercial
solvers (Cplex, Gurobi, etc.) as well as our own software
libraries that have been refined over many years and contain
a range of different solution methods (exact and
approximate). In recent years, we have developed our own
discrete event simulator that has been used in several
industrial projects. We commercialise our results, either
through existing solution vendors, spin-off companies, or
directly to end users. Our revenues come from users in
industry and the public sector, often supported by Norwegian
or EU funding bodies.
