The conference is jointly organized by the Department of Physics and Department of Mathematics, National University of Singapore, and the Institute of Advanced Studies, Nanyang Technological University. ICCP9 is the 9th conference in the series. It aims to provide a platform for computational physicists, mathematicians, materials scientists and engineers to share their recent developments in frontiers of theory and numerical methods as well as applications in computational physics and exchange ideas. The conference will consist of plenary lectures, mini-symposia with invited and contributed oral presentations, and poster sessions. All researchers in computational physics, computational mathematics, computational science and applications or related disciplines are cordially invited to attend this conference. Anyone who is interested in organizing a mini-symposium can submit a proposal to the conference chairs for consideration. The proposal should include a title, duration (minimum half day), tentative speakers (one keynote speaker for each half day session, and a good mix of invited, contributed oral and poster presentations), and estimated number of participants. All are welcome to attend ICCP9 and see you in Singapore in January 2015.

More information on the topic can be found on http://www.igpm.rwth-aachen.de/DROPS The candidates should have a university degree ( Master or equivalent ) in mathematics, computational engineering or a related field and should have basic knowledge on numerical methods for PDEs. Research will be on a topic in the field of numerical methods for partial differential equations, e.g. methods for two-phase incompressible flow problems or for PDEs on evolving surfaces. The candidate has to carry out part of the teaching tasks at the Chair for Numerical Mathematics. The position is of 2 years in case of a postdoc position or of 4 years in case of a PhD position and is to be filled by October 1, 2014. An extension by two more years is possible. The successful candidate has the opportunity to pursue a doctoral degree. The salary is based on the German public service salary scale (TV-L). For further details, please contact Prof. Dr. A.
