An Invitation to Visit the Functional Programming Group
=======================================================
at Chalmers University, Gothenburg
===================================
The functional programming group at Chalmers University of Technology
has funding to invite one or more medium-term visitors during the
coming year. Visits may be from three to twelve months duration, and
the visitor will be paid a tax-free fellowship of 12,000 SEK per
month, or your additional costs if you take a sabbatical to come.
Visits should preferably begin before the end of June 1993. Visitors
must have a doctorate, and must be coming from outside Sweden to
be eligible for a fellowship.
The salary of 12,000 SEK per month is approximately US$22,000 or
UK#14,500 per year. It is sufficient for one person to live
comfortably in Sweden.
The functional programming group consists of Lennart Augustsson, John
Hughes, Thomas Johnsson, Mikael Rittri, Mary Sheeran, and about a
dozen others. Current research includes:
* Efficient implementation of lazy functional languages.
* Parallel graph reduction.
* Programming environments for functional languages, including
window interfaces.
* Garbage collection.
* Program analysis by abstract interpretation.
* Partial evaluation.
* Relational programming and hardware algorithms.
* Architectures to support functional languages.
* User defined syntax.
If you are interested in visiting us, please contact John Hughes
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or Thomas Johnsson ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
by 11 December.
