The project is a joint project among several research groups in Italian universities and public research institutions:</div><div class="">Sapienza University of Rome (Prof. Fabio Pellacini, PI)</div><div class="">CRS4 - Cagliari (Dr. Enrico Gobbetti)</div><div class="">ISTI-CNR - Pisa (Dr. Paolo Cignoni)</div><div class="">University of Cagliari (Prof. Riccardo Scateni)</div><div class="">University of Genoa (Prof. Enrico Puppo)</div><div class="">University of Insubria (Prof. Marco Tarini)</div><div class="">University of Verona (Prof. Andrea Giachetti)</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The Rome and Genoa research Units are primarily involved in the development of techniques for direct drawing and placing patterns on 3D surfaces, and their reproduction on 3D printed object. The main areas of investigation are how to rise the standard 2D vector image techniques to a Riemannian manifold endowed with its own metric, and how to reproduce the optical properties of real materials by computationally mixing printed patterns. The post-docs will be fully involved in these activities under the supervision of both Prof. Pellacini and Prof. Puppo, and will have the opportunity to spend time at both institutions if so desired, and to collaborate with the other partners of the project.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Candidates should own a PhD in Computer Science, Mathematics or related subject, have experience in 3D Computer Graphics (rendering, geometry processing, or 3D fabrication) and excellent programming skills. The positions are for one year, renewable to two, and come with a gross salary of between 20 and 35 thousand euros, corresponding to roughly 1500 to 2600 net income a month, including medical benefits.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Expressions of interest or inquiries for information should be communicated by contacting directly Prof. Fabio Pellacini (<a href="mailto:pellacini@di.uniroma1.it" class="">pellacini@di.uniroma1.it</a>) and Prof. Enrico Puppo (<a href="mailto:enrico.puppo@unige.it" class="">enrico.puppo@unige.it</a>).
