        The Pacific Software Research Center (PacSoft) has two openings 
for postdoctoral researchers to work on the Programatica and AIM projects.
Programatica is an environment for the simultaneous development of 
systems and formal models of systems that leverages functional 
programming, theorem proving, and other applied formal methods. The 
primary application area of Programatica is modeling information 
assurance properties. The AIM project focuses on using functional 
language ideas to model and prove properties about the AIM 
crypto-processor.  For each position, candidates are sought with 
expertise in the application and implementation of theorem proving
technology, applications of higher-order, typed functional languages, 
or other areas related to information assurance and applied formal 
methods.
        PacSoft explores techniques for the use of higher-order, typed
functional languages for the development, specification, analysis and
verification of hardware and software. The Center is currently composed 
of six faculty, several graduate students and six postdoctoral staff. The 
Center is administratively a unit of the Department of Computer Science 
and Engineering of the Oregon Graduate Institute of Science and 
Technology. The Oregon Graduate Institute of Science and Technology 
is an independent graduate school and research institute located just 
to the west of Portland, Oregon. 
        To apply, please send a CV with a brief description of your research
accomplishments and interests, including the names of at least three
references. Send applications to:
