- 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
- (rjmh@cs.chalmers.se) or Thomas Johnsson (johnsson@cs.chalmers.se)
- by 11 December.
