Postdoctoral Research Fellow Computing Science University of Aberdeen Salary range: £26,915 - £30,293 per annum PolicyGrid (http://www.policygrid.org) is one of the UK National Centre for eSocial Science (NCeSS) research nodes. The Node's research agenda is focused on assisting the social science community to exploit the full potential of emerging Semantic Web technologies and standards in the Grid context. The Node brings computer scientists and social scientists together to focus on the challenges of using Semantic Grid technologies to enable more powerful analysis of mixed-method data (e.g. surveys and interviews, case studies, simulations) thus adding significant value to the work of social scientists engaged in the creation and analysis of evidence bases for policy development and evaluation. The post holder will be part of a larger team and will focus on the development of semantic grid infrastructure and lightweight metadata (ontology + folksonomy) support for a range of activities including social simulation models, and support for policy argumentation. You will also be expected to contribute to the research agenda for the Node, and your role will involve liaison with the National Centre for eSocial Science (NCeSS) located at the University of Manchester. You should have a PhD in Computer Science or a related discipline. You are expected to be a highly competent programmer in Java, and have experience of Semantic Web technologies (including OWL and RDF). Knowledge of e-science and Web/Grid service technologies would be desirable. The work will involve conceptual/theoretical work, and also implementation of demonstrable system software. The post is being offered for 30 months on a full time basis and is tenable from 1 September 2006.
