====================================================== PostDoctoral Research Fellow (3 years) on Ontology Reasoning Applications received by January 25, 2008, are assured full consideration. ====================================================== The Knowledge Technology (KT) group in the Department of Computing Science at the University of Aberdeen is one of the key players in the area of semantics and ontology technologies with excellent balance between theoretical work and pragmatic applications. The KT group offers a friendly yet stimulating environment of a leading research group in the field of semantics and ontology; an active collaboration with leading academic institutes and major companies in fields like software engineering, multimedia, product (such as aircraft engines) engineering, bioinformatics and Web science; as well as experience of collaboration with standardisation bodies such as the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The KT group is looking for a PostDoc researcher who is willing to continue their existing field of research within one of our new projects. The goal of the project is to improve software engineering by leveraging ontology and reasoning technology. To reach this goal, it will develop a seamless integration technology for ontologies into model-driven software development (MDSD), resulting in ontology-driven software development (ODSD). The PostDoc researcher is expected to lead the ontology and reasoning work package in the project. The project will run for 3 years starting in February 2008. The salary of the post will be 27,857 GBP pa. The KT group expects: (1) An excellent PhD degree, or equivalent academic degree, in Compute Science or related disciplines. (2) Research interest and expertise in at least one of the following areas: ontology, reasoning, software engineering, query answering, inconsistency reasoning, uncertainty reasoning, machine learning. (3) The willingness to combine formal theoretical work with application-oriented research. (4) The willingness to jointly supervise early career researchers. For further information regarding to the research in the KT group and the project, please contact Dr. Jeff Z. Pan (http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/~jpan/). Formal applications can be completed online: https://www.abdn.ac.uk/jobs/application/login.php?refno=YCS067R&Type=academic. Please include your curriculum vitae, a list of publications (if applicable) and digital versions of your most relevant work.
