Dear Eileen,
could you be so kind as to circulate the job advertisement (the enclosed
pdf) to all participants of the Stein meeting
“New directions in Stein’s method”. I have mentioned my new research
group in my talk in Singapore and the
job advertisement seem to be of interest for most of the participants.
Many thanks in advance and best regards
Peter Eichelsbacher

SEMINARIO
Villa del Grumello, Como
Martedi 9 giugno, 2015 h 17.30
Jeff Gill, Washington University in St Louis
To be Bayesian, or not to be:
that is the question in the social sciences
In this talk I will outline the basics of Bayesian inference, discuss why quasi-frequentist approaches fail in the social sciences, and give some examples of Bayesian data analysis. The emphasis is on general concepts and statistical intuition rather than mathematical details.

La piattaforma Mathesia - sviluppata da MOXOff (spin-off del Politecnico di Milano) e Yottacle (startup di PoliHub) offre soluzioni di alto profilo grazie alla matematica applicata.
SolEthEn, in collaborazione con il Dipartimento di Matematica, Informatica ed Economia dell’UniBas, propone alle aziende lucane e agli specialisti di settore un incontro di approfondimento sui temi:
“MATEMATICA E INNOVAZIONE NEI PROCESSI PRODUTTIVI - MATHESIA: La piattaforma di crowdsourcing che risponde alle sfide di business con la matematica applicata”.
L’evento e' realizzato col patrocinio:
- della Camera di Commercio di Potenza,
- di Confindustria Basilicata
- della Regione Basilicata,
e si terra' presso la Camera di Commercio di Potenza – Corso XVIII Agosto, 34 - giovedi' 4 giugno c.a. a partire dalle 15:30.
All’evento interverranno:
- “Opening dell’incontro” - Avv. Michele Somma (Presidente della Camera di Commercio di Potenza) e Prof. Giansalvatore Mecca (Prorettore con delega alla ricerca dell’UniBas)
- “La matematica come strumento strategico di innovazione per l’impresa” - Paola Curci (Amministratore di SolEthEn)
- “Conoscere per competere: istruzioni per l’uso delle competenze di un Dipartimento di Matematica” - Prof.ssa Elvira Di Nardo (Docente di statistica presso UniBas)
- “Mathesia un nuovo modo per favorire la relazione tra imprese e mondo della ricerca” - Ottavio Crivaro (Amministratore di MOXOff)
Agli interventi seguira' uno spazio di dibattito dove le aziende presenti, avranno modo di esporre bisogni/esigenze industriali specifiche o di settore che rappresentano potenziali sfide da risolvere attraverso gli strumenti presentati.

Ph.D. position : “Two-dimensional models in queues and risk: exact analytic methods”
In the framework of the project “Two-dimensional models in queues and risk”, funded by the Dutch Research Foundation NWO, there is a PhD position available in the Stochastic Operations Research group at the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science in Eindhoven University of Technology, in The Netherlands.
The research topic brings together two, related, areas of applied probability: queueing theory and insurance risk. In both areas, one-dimensional stochastic processes are well understood. However, in queueing theory one is usually faced with a network of interconnected and interacting resources, or with several classes of interacting customers; and thus one needs to study multidimensional stochastic processes. Similarly, in insurance risk one often needs to study several, related, books of a company, and the capitals of different companies are often linked via reinsurance contracts -- again giving rise to multidimensional stochastic processes. In both areas, only few two- or higher-dimensional systems have allowed an exact analysis.
Our main goal is to develop mathematical tools for the analysis of two-dimensional stochastic processes, and thus get a deeper insight into the intricate interactions which occur in, e.g., queueing systems and insurance risk processes.
The project is methodologically oriented. We shall develop three sets of methods, viz.,
T1: exact analytic methods;
T2: asymptotic techniques (heavy traffic); and
T3: rare-event analysis and simulation.
Important problem instances are coupled/parallel processors and their counterpart in insurance risk, and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes. Two PhD students have just started their research in T2 and T3; we have a vacancy for T1.
o Job requirements:
Candidates are expected to be fluent in English, both oral and in writing, and have an excellent background in (applied) mathematics, as evidenced by an MSc degree in preferably (applied) mathematics, or possibly econometrics, operations research or electrical engineering. Strong knowledge of applied probability and analysis is highly desirable.
o Terms of employment:
PhD candidates are appointed as temporary university employees for a four-year period (based on an initial one-year contract, with a three-year extension after a positive evaluation as to whether the research is expected to result in a PhD degree after four years). The terms of employment are governed by the Collective Labor Agreement of Universities in The Netherlands, with a monthly salary starting at 2083 Euro in the first year, and increasing to 2664 Euro in the fourth year, and an additional 8% holiday allowance and 8% end-of-year bonus. For further details, please refer, e.g., to http://w3.tue.nl/en/services/dpo/conditions_of_employment/tue_conditions_of…

For further information, please contact one of the following persons:
Prof.dr.ir. Onno Boxma (o.j.boxma(a)tue.nl<mailto:o.j.boxma@tue.nl>)
Dr. Stella Kapodistria (s.kapodistria(a)tue.nl<mailto:s.kapodistria@tue.nl>)
Prof.dr. Sindo Nunez Queija (nunezqueija(a)uva.nl<mailto:nunezqueija@uva.nl>)

cari iscritti alla lista Random
come avrete notato in questi giorni c'è stato qualche problema con la
lista. Naturalmente problemi come questi emergono in occasione di
festività o (come in questo caso) in occasione di ponti lunghi. Solo
oggi siamo riusciti a contattare i tecnici informatici che gestiscono
il server e a ripristinare le funzioni della lista.
Ringraziamo innanzitutto Matteo Ruggiero che per primo si è accorto del
problema. Inutile dire inoltre che i messaggi con intestazione (e
contenuto) ``prova'' possono essere ragionevolmente ignorati.
Preghiamo invece chiunque abbia inviato posta a Random tra il 27 maggio
e questa mattina e che non abbia ricevuto riscontro dalla lista, di
reinviare i propri messaggi. Nel dubbio è possibile controllare gli
archivi:
https://mail.dm.unipi.it/pipermail/random/summary.html
scusate il disagio,
Francesco
Marco
ps. Per chi fosse interessato a maggiori dettagli, due account del
server che gestisce la lista sono stati compromessi (questo non ha
conseguenze su Random, perché gli account erano di utenti ordinari) ed
usati negli ultimi giorni per spedire SPAM. I tecnici sono intervenuti
subito bloccando gli account, ma per cancellare gli SPAM hanno dovuto
fermare il sistema di posta per alcune ore. Al riavvio del sistema di
posta ``misteriosamente'' (nel senso che i tecnici su questo hanno dato
spiegazioni più fumose) la lista non è ripartita e c'è stato bisogno di
ulteriori smanettamenti.
