[ The Types Forum (announcements only),
http://lists.seas.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/types-announce ]
A research grant position for one year in the field of Computer Aided Formal
Reasoning is available at the University of Udine (Dept. of Mathematics,
Computer Science and Physics). The research program is about the development of
the core of a proof assistant based on LFP [1-6], a logical framework allowing
to make calls to external oracles (e.g., other logical frameworks, decision
methods etc.), starting from an existing type checker written in OCaml.
APPLICATION DEADLINE 07/09/2018 23:59 - Europe/Brussels
