Subject: [seweb-list] Research positions (Semantic Web) at AIFB Karlsruhe
> The Semantic Web group (Prof. Rudi Studer) at AIFB Karlsruhe offers two
> research positions, to begin at the earliest possible date.
>
> The positions concern the following topics:
>
> [1] Automated reasoning/logic/knowledge representation (more info below)
> [2] Semantic Web Services (more info below)
>
> The Knowledge Management research group at the Institute for Applied
> Informatics and Formal Description Methods (AIFB,
> http://www.aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de/WBS) at the University of Karlsruhe
> (TH), Germany, is an interdisciplinary team of computer scientists,
> mathematicians, information technologists and industrial engineers and
> one of the world's leading research groups in the area of the Semantic
> Web.
>
> Applications should be sent by postal mail (no email) to Prof. Dr. Rudi
> Studer, Universität Karlsruhe (TH), Institute AIFB, 76128 Karlsruhe,

> [1] Research position (Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter) for a Ph.D.
> student or a postdoctoral researcher, on initial contract for two years,
> with the possibility of extending the contract.
>
> We are looking for an outstanding person for research in topics of
> automated reasoning, its logical foundations, and knowledge
> representation and reasoning, in order to join a team for developing
> expressive and scalable deduction paradigms and for realising them in
> software. One of the foci is the enhancement of the KAON2 OWL reasoner
> (http://kaon2.semanticweb.org). Based on innovative algorithms, KAON2 is
> already one of the most efficient inference engines for OWL and is being
> used in large-scale EU projects and commercially in cooperation with
> ontoprise GmbH.
>
> This position requires excellent abilities in dealing with mathematical
> formalisms, and also solid programming experience, if possible in an
> industrial setting. We are looking forward to receiving applications
> from candidates who have recently completed a very good Masters degree
> in computer science or a related field and want to pursue a PhD project,
> or who have recently completed a PhD degree and are interested in
> research and project work in an internationally acclaimed research group.

> We are looking for a person to participate in our semantic Web services
> research area. Semantically-described services can enable the automated
> discovery, selection, composition and invocation of services. Along with
> Grid services, they are a primary foundation for service-oriented
> architectures. This position requires reasonable programming experience
> and some expertise with knowledge representation and planning
> techniques. Familiarity with distributed computing is a definite plus.
> Since this position requires interfacing with German national
> institutions, good knowledge of German is required.
>
> The position is funded by the European Union and the German Federal
> Ministry for Eduation and Research (BMBF) as part of international and
> national projects. As a group, we participate in research related to Web
> Services, Semantic Web Reasoning, Ontology Management, Information
> Integration, Semantic Web Services and Applications of Computational
> Linguistics to Knowledge Modelling. We also have close connections to
> industry, in particular through FZI and ontoprise GmBH.

> If you have recently finished your Masters degree in computer science or
> a related field with very good results, wish to pursue a PhD project
> within an interdisciplinary group and are interested in team-oriented
> research and project work, then we look forward to receiving your
