\begin{center}{\Large \bf 
   Simon Fraser Centre for Experimental and Constructive Mathematics
} \end{center}

This Centre located in Burnaby, British Columbia (Greater Vancouver)
is intended to further research and graduate education in Computation in
the Mathematical Sciences. The Centre aims to provide a sophisticated
environment for Mathematical research on topics that require a substantial
mix of computation, experimentation and mathematics. Of interest are questions
on how one uses the computer: To build intuition?  To generate hypotheses?
To validate conjectures or prove theorems? To discover nontrivial examples
and counter-examples?

The centre will commence full operation July 1, 1993. Activities will
include the following.

(i)  Provision for and sponsorship of Post-Doctoral Fellowships in areas
related to Experimental and Constructive Mathematics.

(ii)  Sponsorship of regular short-term and longer-term research visitors
to the Centre.

(iii) Organization of regular Colloquia and occasional Conferences on
advances in Experimental and Constructive  Mathematics.

(iv) Participation in the training of graduate students in Experimental and
Constructive  Mathematics.

(v) Establishment, development and maintenance of accessible software
archives.

(vi) Collaboration with similar centres and appropriate individuals at
other Canadian and foreign Universities and Institutes.

The initial steering committee consists of J. Borwein (Director), P. Borwein
and R. Russell. Enquiries can be directed to jborwein@math.sfu.ca .

The Centre  is soliciting applications for {\bf two Post-Doctoral Fellows}
commencing after July 1, 1993, in any areas compatible with the interests
of the centre.  The stipend will be set on the NSERC PDF scale.  These are
primarily research positions though some teaching may be involved.
Potential Post-Doctoral Fellows should send a curriculum vitae and arrange
for three letters of reference to be sent to Dr. J.M. Borwein,
Department of Combinatorics and Optimization,University of Waterloo, N2L
3G1, Ontario preferably by December 15, 1992.


The Centre will be soon be soliciting applications for the position of {\bf
Computer System Administrator} commencing April 1, 1993.  Salary range is
\$42,846-\$54,955. This person will be responsible for the installation and
operation of the CECM computing facility and will be expected to provide
technical leadership for this and related projects.  A post graduate degree
in Computing Science or Electrical/Electronic Engineering and five years'
experience (or an equivalent combination of experience and training) are
required.
