                             SUMMER JOBS IN THE
                      SIEMENS RTL TILED WINDOW PROJECT

At  Siemens  RTL,  we are building a tiled window manager for X which will be
distributed as part of the  X  release  tape.    Unlike  other  tiled  window
managers  which  lay  out  windows in columns, the Siemens RTL window manager
supports arbitrary screen layout.  A variety of automatic features place  and
move  windows  to  enforce window constraints while minimizing disturbance to
the current screen layout.

A number of summer jobs are available for GRADUATE students.  You should have
experience   either  in  building  window  systems  or  in  algorithm  design
(especially in floor planning or VLSI layout).  Fluency in C is required.

During the summer, we will be working on
   - Improved automatic placement and layout adjustment.
   - Improved prorating algorithms (allocating screen space to  windows,
     given the topology of the layout).
   - Support for multiple desktops.
   - Support for aspect, area, alignment and adjacency constraints.
   - Design  and implementation of a language for expressing prioritized
     window constraints.

Siemens Research  and  Technology  Laboratories,  in  Princeton  NJ,  is  the
American  laboratory  for Siemens, the largest electronics company in Europe.
The lab is located right on the Route  1  corridor,  an  hour  from  downtown
Philadelphia and an hour and 15 minutes from lower Manhattan.
