                    POSTECH PARALLEL PROCESSOR PROJECT


               POSTDOCTORAL POSITIONS IN TRANSPUTER RESEARCH

  Applicants are invited for postdoctoral positions to work on a large scale 
Transputer research project. According to the qualification, visiting and 
tenure-track faculty positions can be considered. The starting time of 
each position is negotiable. Visitors at graduate student level are also 
invited. 

  The project aims to implement large scale transputer based parallel computer
and to develop related system software, scientific and industrial applications.
A prototype machine with 256 or more T800 Transputers will be built during 
1989. We are currently running B004, B003 based Transputer Development Systems
(TDS), and a Transputer array including 64 T800's will be available during 
the third quarter of this year.  

  Possible research areas are

  1. Development of hardware and system software for dynamically 
     allocating Transputer resources.
  2. Applications in the area of physics, chemistry, finite element method, 
     neural network and artificial intelligence, robotics, industrial 
     applications including image processing and real-time control, etc.

  Pohang Institute of Science and Technology (POSTECH) is a newly established 
research-oriented university in Korea.	POSTECH has 9 departments and accepts
only first-rate undergraduate and graduate students. In addition, Korea's first
particle accelerator, a 2 GeV synchrotron radiation source, will be constructed
on the campus beginning this year. POSTECH's Computer Center operates 
2 VAX 8800's and an IBM 4381.  We also have a VAX 8200(UNIX), a Gould image 
processor, many SUN, Apollo, Symbolics workstations, and PC's for education and
research use. Access to Cray-2 outside the campus will be possible.

  Applications should be sent to

Prof. S. Y. Bang, Department of Computer Science, POSTECH,
P.O. Box 125, Pohang 790-600, Korea.
