Subject: A crowdsourcing platform dedicated to mathematics

We wish to announce a new (somehow unique, we believe)
social/crowdsourcing network, called Mathesia, dedicated to
mathematics and to math specialists, whose aim is to set up a place
where "mathematics meets industry to create innovation".

I hope you will like to know more, in which case please have a look at
http://www.mathesia.com

It would be great if you will register to Mathesia. Registration
before December 1st is free.

Good programming skills (C/C++) are required and optimization or
operations research skills are desired.

The second theme is on computational convex analysis and involves the
creation of new algorithms to compute mathematical objects regularly
used in convex analysis. The background required is good programming
skills (MATLAB, Scilab, or Octave), and a desire to learn convex
analysis.

Historically students with a computer science background have been
very successful in our program (and found positions at Google, Amazon,
or Microsoft), as well as students with a mathematical background and
strong programming skills.

Interested candidates should contact Dr. Yves Lucet, Associate
Professor, Computer Science, Director, Centre for Optimization Convex
