Postgraduate Research in Functional Hybrid Modelling
School of Computer Science and IT University of Nottingham The University of Nottingham has an open position for a PhD student to work on EPSRC-funded project called Functional Hybrid Modelling, running for three years. This is a project at the intersection of, on the one hand, programming language semantics, design, and implementation, and, on the other, hybrid modelling and simulation. The ideal applicant would have a first- or upper-second class honours degree or equivalent in Computer Science (or possibly other area of direct relevance to the project), along with expertise in one or more of the following: * functional programming; * semantics, design, and implementation of (declarative) languages; * techniques for (hybrid) modelling and simulation, and related fields of mathematics (numerical methods, numerical analysis, calculus, linear algebra); * modelling and simulation of physical systems. The position is open to UK and EU applicants, but particularly strong applicants from outside the EU may also be considered, subject to the possibilities of securing additional funding. The successful applicant will work within the Foundations of Programming group at the School of Computer Science and IT: http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/Research/fop/ The group currently comprise 7 academic staff, 5 research staff, and 14 research students. The research areas of the group include Algebra of Programming, Functional Programming (theory and practice), and Logic in Computer Science. The group is a founder member of the Midlands Graduate School in the Foundations of Computer Science, which provides postgraduate courses for PhD students in theoretical computer science.
