Job  Opening  in  Computational  Linguistics  at   the   University   of
Saarbrucken:

         Research Associate (Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter) 
                      in the Project BiLD 

We are looking for an additional researcher to join  the  project  BiLD,
located  at  the  Department  of  Computational   Linguistics   of   the
University of Saarbruecken.

BiLD (Bidirectional  Linguistic  Deduction)  is  a  three  year  project
(started January '91) funded by the DFG (German Science Foundation). The project is  part  of  the  Special  Research  Division  314:  Artificial
Intelligence  and  Knowledge-Based  Systems  with   locations   at   the
Universities of Karlsruhe, Kaiserslautern and Saarbruecken.

The main objective of the project BiLD is  the  development  of  uniform
methods for parsing and generation based on  the  paradigm  of  "NLP  as
deduction" in the area of constraint-based  approaches  to  linguistics.
Current project members are Guenter Neumann, Gertjan van Noord and  Hans
Uszkoreit (PI).

Ideally, we are  looking  for  a  computer  scientist  or  computational
linguist  with  theoretical  and  practical  experience   in   automated
deduction techniques and interest in the  application  of  AI  deduction
methods to natural language processing. However, we are also  interested
in hearing from interested individuals offering  a  good  background  in
computational linguistics with experience in the area of the  processing
of feature-logic-based grammars.

The University of Saarbruecken offers an excellent research  environment
for  anyone  interested   in   computational   linguistics,   artificial
intelligence,  and  computer  science.  Several  research  projects  are
conducted at the Computational Linguistics  department.  The  University
has one of the best Computer Science departments in Germany. NLP is  one
of the main strengths of the department's AI lab. 

The  university  also  hosts  the  DFKI  (German  Research  Center   for
Artificial Intelligence), where several project groups work in the  area
of NLP. Furthermore a newly founded Max-Planck  Institute  for  Computer
Science with a focus in Parallel Processing  has  been  set  up  on  the
Saarbruecken campus. 

Appointment initially until December 1993, with  prospects  for  renewal
until December 1996, Salary on the German BAT IIa scale.   Exact  income
depends on age and marital status.
