The DEVISE Centre is doing research and development in Experimental Systems Development including object-oriented technology. Works includes: * participation in the development of the BETA language * development of the Mjolner BETA system, which is a programming environment for BETA. The system includes a number of libraries, frameworks and tools: * integrated text- and structure editors, * debuggers * code and object browsers * OO CASE tool * OO interface builder * work on OO analysis and design methods * persistence and distribution, incl. implementations for BETA * OO databases on top of the persistence and distribution implementations In addition to OO technology the DEVISE Centre is working with participatory design, prototyping, user interface construction, hypermedia, Coloured Petri Net (theory as well as tools). We are currenly looking for a highly qualified researcher that is interested in participating in the above activities with main emphasis on persistence, distribution and OO databases. As mentioned we have developed implementations in BETA for persistence, distribution and OO databases. These implementatiosn have mainly been used to supprt the DEVISE Hypermedia which is an open, Dexter-based Hypermedia. We are now interested in doing further research in these areas including almost all aspects from models for persistence, transactions, concurrency control, notifications, schema evolution, versioning, query facilities, and efficient implementations. (This is not an exhaustive list). You must be interested in development of the next generation of persistence and concurrency for BETA. Unfortunately the Danish grant system requires us to have a name and a CV in order to get the funding. Funding for this position requires a person with a good track record. If you are interested in such a position, please send a CV, including a description of previous work and your areas of interest, together with references to 2-3 people that will recommend you. Send to Professor Ole Lehrmann Madsen The DEVISE Centre Computer Science Department Ny Munkegade Aarhus University DK-8000 Aarhus C, DENMARK Tel.: +45 89 42 32 35 Fax.: +45 89 42 32 55 E-mail: olmadsen@daimi.aau.dk (E-mail: text or Postscript is preferred) If you attend OOPSLA'96 in San Jose you may contact Jorgen Lindskov Knudsen, Elmer Sandvad, or Ole Lehrmann Madsen. We stay at le Baron Hotel, San Jose. You may also leave a message at the exhibition stand for Mjolner Informatics, where you also can get a demo of the Mjolner BETA System and the DEVISE Hypermedia.
