Position in Operation research
Dept. of Industrial and System Engineering, Catholic University of Chile
The School of Engineering at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile
invites applications for a faculty position in Operations Research at the
Department of Industrial and System Engineering. Operations Research is
one of the areas of the Department, together with Operations Management,
Economics and Finance, and General Management. Hence, we seek
candidates with strong background in the area but, at the same time, ability
to interact with other researchers and be able to get involved in relevant
applications of Operations Research. Applicants should have (or be
currently
pursuing studies toward) a PhD in Operations Research or a related area,
have potential for teaching excellence at the undergraduate and graduate
levels and a record of success in, or potential for, scholarly research
and
publication in leading academic journals. Candidates need not know Spanish
at the moment of applying, but learning the language will be important
afterwards.
The value proposition includes:
. Working at Chile's best university with the country's best students
(top 3%).
. Interaction with faculty members with PhDs from the world's top-rated
universities.
. Enjoying a high standard of living.
The School of Engineering at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile
ranks among the top Latin American engineering institutions. Both our
undergraduate and graduate programs are accredited by the Chilean
Accreditation Commission (CNA), and our undergraduate programs are also
accredited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology
(ABET). The undergraduate program accepts a maximum of 500 students per
year, chosen from among the top 3% of the country's students.
Currently
our full-time faculty includes 110 professors, 97% of whom have doctorates
from prestigious universities worldwide. They are committed to introducing
innovative teaching methods, conducting state-of-the art research and
publishing in international journals.
The School of Engineering has nine departments and seven research centers,
and offers Master's and Ph.D. degrees. The Operations Research position
comes under the School's Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering.
A leader in innovation and dissemination in the theory and practice of
management, the Department's activities make a fundamental contribution to
the education of industrial engineers at the Pontificia Universidad
Católica
de Chile. Research and Outreach activities at the Department include
Management Sciences, as well as Economics and Finance and Organizational
Sciences, generating activities with high impact in industry and

6- International Workshop "Metric Regularity Days"
(source: H. Frankowska)
We are organising on October 25-26th, 2011 an International Workshop
"Metric Regularity Days".
http://www.math.jussieu.fr/~frankowska/MetricRegularitySite/index.html
<http://www.math.jussieu.fr/%7Efrankowska/MetricRegularitySite/index.html>
Talks will be given by leading specialists in the domain and we are also
planning to organize a panel/discussion on applications of metric
regularity
to control problems.
There is no registration fee, bur a registration is required.
If you wish to attend, please contact Helene Frankowska:

"The theory of metric regularity is a rapidly developing area motivated by
various applications in optimization and control. It is useful both for
theoretical studies and in numerical analysis.
In particular, metric regularity is very instrumental as a tool for handling
undamental problems such as controllability, normality of necessary
optimality conditions, feasibility, as well as implicit mapping theorems,
sensitivity and robustness. It plays a major role in proving convergence
of
numerical methods for solving problems of optimal control, optimization,
equilibrium, and beyond. Specifically, the metric regularity property
reflects
the idea of a posteriori error bounds for constraint systems. For discrete
approximations of extremals in optimal control it leads to a posteriori
error
estimates. There is a natural relationship between metric regularity and
convergence of a broad range of algorithms, such as Newton-type methods,
providing also the rate of convergence."
