Short research positions at The Poznan University of Economics, Poland - Tools for ontologies

Department of Management Information Systems at The Poznan University of 
Economics, Poland is looking for a visiting scholar for a 3-months stay. 
The researcher will be funded by FP6 Marie Curie Host Fellowship for the 
Transfer of Knowledge under the project ENIRAF – Enhanced Information 
Retrieval and Filtering for Analytical Systems 
(http://eniraf.mis.ae.poznan.pl/). Focus of the research in this project 
is on ontologies, web services and the Semantic Web.

The position to be filled is "Researcher and practitioner in tools for 
ontologies" (ref.: eniraf-wp2).

The goal of the job is to transfer the knowledge on capabilities of 
tools for ontologies. We are interested in various kinds of tools: 
ontology modelling, visual modelling, ontology editors, sharing of 
ontology, ontology reuse, automatic ontology creation, annotation tools, 
information extraction, and natural language processing tools. The type 
of tools should be best suited for information retrieval and filtering. 
Successful candidate will work together with local faculty, prepare 
workshops to teach them how to use specific tools for ontologies, 
present lectures for students, take part in departmental projects in 
order to introduce new ideas, look for intersection between the ontology 
tools and information retrieval and filtering. As an outcome, the 
faculty should get familiarized with a variety of tools for ontologies 
and should be aware how they may be applied for their departmental projects.

PhD or 4 years of working experience as researcher is required.

The position is available from March 1, 2005. It is also possible to 
postpone the start of the fellowship if the best candidate will wish so.

Applicants should forward their resume (CV) by post, fax or e-mail 
(preferably) to:
