- Announcement: 2 Post-Doctoral Positions Available
- -------------------------------------------------
-
- Positions:
-
- We have 2 post-doctoral positions available starting June 1, 1996 (or
- later). These positions are not restricted by citizenship. Approval of
- these openings is pending.
-
- Context:
-
- The research work is to be done in the Partial Evaluation Group at
- IRISA (Brittany, France). This group mainly consists of 1 faculty
- member, 1 research scientist, 2 post-docs, and 5 Phd students. More
- information about the place and the research topics of the group can
- be obtained from our Web page
- (URL: /site/irisa/WWW/htdocs/EXTERNE/projet/lande/consel/index.html)
-
- Research Area:
-
- Partial Evaluation is a program transformation approach. It is aimed
- at specializing programs with respect to invariants. Specialization
- can occur at compile time as well as run time. We are working on
- partial evaluation of imperative and applicative languages. Our work
- is being applied to various areas such as operating systems.
-
- Position 1:
-
- This position is concerned with the design and development of a
- partial evaluation system for C programs. A first prototype of this
- system, called Tempo, has already been developed; it consists of
- various program analysis and program transformation phases. It is
- written both in SML and C. Applicants should have a solid background
- in optimizing compilation and program analysis.
-
- Position 2:
-
- For this position, the selected applicant is expected to participate
- in the development of partial evaluation techniques for real-time and
- distributed systems. An example of this is telecommunication
- applications. As such, this topic combines both systems and
- programming language aspects. Applicants should have a solid
- background in some of these areas.
-
-
- To apply please send a resume, the name of three references, and a
- statement of research interests to charles.consel@irisa.fr and
- isabelle.vallee@irisa.fr. Applications will be reviewed beginning
- March 15, 1996. Please contact Charles Consel if you need further
- information.
