07 Sep '07

Postdoctoral position in Programming Technology at the University of Bergen, Norway We are looking for an excellent researcher to fill a postdoctoral position. The position is available for a period of 2 years at the Department of Informatics, University of Bergen, Norway. It is financed by the Research Council of Norway (NFR) through the project Scientific Computing with Algebraic and Generative Abstractions for Geophysical Problems (SAGA-GEO, http://www.ii.uib.no/saga/). The project conducts basic research on the use of advanced programming technologies for e- science. The position is in this area in general, but there is a preference for an expert in programming of parallel computers. University of Bergen is a city university. Parts of the campus are in fact situated in the town centre. We have about 17.000 students and nearly 3000 employees. UiB is renowned for its research which holds a high European standard and we have three Centres of Excellence (CoE). The University of Bergen has a strong international profile which entails close co-operation with universities all over the world. The working environment will be the Programming technology Group at the Department of Informatics, University of Bergen. The group consists of 2 full-time professors, 3 adjunct professors, 1 postdoctoral fellows and 5 PhD positions. The group is very international and much of the working language is English. The project also involves cooperation with the Mathematics Department and CIPR. Applicants must have achieved a Norwegian doctorate in informatics, mathematics or an equivalent education abroad, or have presented the dissertation for assessment by the closing date for application. It is prerequisite the dissertation has been approved before appointment is granted. The chief objective of the postdoctoral position is to qualify the successful applicant for top academic positions. It is expected that the successful candidate will start late 2006 or early 2007. Salary will be paid in accordance with level 54 on the government salary scale (code 1352) currently equivalent to NOK 390 000 (1 EURO is about 8 NKR) per year before tax. There are no teaching duties. Positions in Norway include health and other benefits. Please contact Professor Magne Haveraaen http://www.ii.uib.no/~magne/ phone 47 55 58 4154 if you are interested in this position or if you have any questions. State employment shall reflect the multiplicity of the population at large to the highest possible degree.

[Please distribute -- Apologies for multiple copies] SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS WFLP 2006 - 14th Workshop on Functional and (Constraint) Logic Programming Facultad de Informatica - Universidad Complutense de Madrid Madrid, Spain, November 16-17, 2006 http://gpd.sip.ucm.es/fraguas/wflp06/ General ======= The Workshop on Functional and (Constraint) Logic Programming aims at bringing together researchers interested in functional programming, (constraint) logic programming, as well as their integration. It promotes the cross-fertilizing exchange of ideas and experiences among researches and students from the different communities interested in the foundations, applications, and combinations of high-level, declarative programming languages and related areas. The previous WFLP editions are: WCFLP 2005 (Tallinn, Estonia), WFLP 2004 (Aachen, Germany), WFLP 2003 (Valencia, Spain), WFLP 2002 (Grado, Italy), WFLP 2001 (Kiel, Germany), WFLP 2000 (Benicassim, Spain), WFLP'99 (Grenoble, France), WFLP'98 (Bad Honnef, Germany), WFLP'97 (Schwarzenberg, Germany), WFLP'96 (Marburg, Germany), WFLP'95 (Schwarzenberg, Germany), WFLP'94 (Schwarzenberg, Germany), WFLP'93 (Rattenberg, Germany), and WFLP'92 (Karlsruhe, Germany). Topics ====== WFLP'06 solicits papers in all areas of functional and (constraint) logic programming, including (but not limited to): * Language Design: modules and type systems, multi-paradigm languages, concurrency and distribution, objects * Foundations: formal semantics, rewriting and narrowing, non-monotonic reasoning, dynamics, type theory * Implementation: abstract machines, parallelism, compile-time and run-time optimizations, interfacing with external languages * Transformation and Analysis: abstract interpretation, specialization, partial evaluation, program transformation, meta-programming * Software Engineering: design patterns, specification, verification and validation, debugging, test generation * Integration of Paradigms: integration of declarative programming with other paradigms such as imperative, object-oriented, concurrent, and real-time programming * Applications: declarative programming in education and industry, domain-specific languages, visual/graphical user interfaces, embedded systems, WWW applications, knowledge representation and machine learning, deductive databases, advanced programming environments and tools The main focus is on new and original research results but submissions describing innovative products, prototypes under development or interesting experiments (e.g., benchmarks) are also encouraged. Submission ========== Authors are invited to submit an abstract and a list of keywords not later than July 13, 2006, and a complete paper (no longer than 14 pages including figures and references) not later than July 20, 2006. Submission -including the previous abstract-- should be done using the WFLP'06 submission web page (http://www.easychair.org/WFLP06/). Authors must follow the ENTCS instructions (http://www.entcs.org/prelim.html) for preparing files for publication in preliminary versions of ENTCS volumes for distribution at meetings. Publication =========== The proceedings of the workshop will be published as a special number of Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science (Elsevier) after the workshop. A preprint of the proceedings will be available to the participants during the workshop.
