		   Computer Systems Officer (Level 6)

			Reference Number A07/08

		Persistent Systems Research Group
		Basser Department of Computer Science
			University of Sydney

A graduate in computer science is required to work on two related research
projects in the general area of persistent systems.  The first project
involves an investigation of concurrency control techniques for persistent
systems and will be implemented entirely in C under the UNIX operating
system.  The second project requires the development of a compiler for an
experimental programming language and may also involve programming in
Napier88, an advanced persistent programming language with a sophisticated
and powerful type system.

A degree majoring in computer science, compiler design experience and
familiarity with programming in C and UNIX are essential.  An honours
degree would be a distinct advantage, as would experience with persistent
systems and/or concurrency control mechanisms.  The position is available
in the first instance until the end of 1994 and may be extended for up to a
further two years depending on the availability of funds.

The closing date is 3 March 1994.

Salary in the range $33,523 - $36,297
