3 phd fellowships from DERI Galway http://www.deri.ie/about/jobs PhD fellowship position in Social Software and Semantic Web DERI is a leading research institute in semantic technologies that offers a stimulating, dynamic and multi-cultural research environment, excellent ties to research-groups worldwide and standardization bodies, close collaboration with industrial partners and up-to-date infrastructure and resources. The DERI Unit Social Software focuses on the convergence of Social Software and the Semantic Web by developing models and tools that support and take advantage of these two trends. Achievements of DERI USS include SIOC - Semantically-Interlinked Online Communities - and a large number of publications and tutorials on the topic in international venues and journals. USS Research is performed in collaboration with other DERI units and industrial partners. The PhD position is funded by Science Foundation Ireland (http://sfi.ie) within the Lion2 project and offers for the successful candidate an annual stipend, course fees and conference travel when presenting. The Candidate Applicants should have a strong interest in Social Software, Semantic Web and Web Science in general and hold an excellent primary degree or Masters qualification in a relevant discipline (e.g. computer science, information science, knowledge representation), with an emphasis on practical aspects of research (e.g. industrial project experience, ontology development and open-source software developement being distinct advantages). Selected candidates are expected to have the willingness to combine formal scientific work with application-oriented research and development in projects funded by national and international (EU) funding agencies, as well as participating in open-source projects and standardization activities. Application Please submit your application (including cover letter, relevant publications or software implementation, full CV and contact details for two referees) to hr.ie@deri.org by 5pm on Friday, June 26th with the subject line 'PhD Position - DERI USS'. Candidates will be contacted in the first week of July and interviews will be then conducted for successful applications. For further information please contact Alexandre Passant and John Breslin. Post-graduate fellowship in Semantic Web technologies for Content Management Systems The Reasoning and Querying Unit at the Digital Enterprise Research Institute (DERI) of the National University of Ireland, Galway invites applications for a Research Assistant, Masters or PhD fellowship position in the area of Semantic Web technologies for Content Management Systems. DERI, a leading research institute in semantic technologies, offers a stimulating, dynamic and multi-cultural research environment, excellent ties to research-groups worldwide and close collaboration with industrial partners. The open fellowship is tailored to deploy Semantic Web technologies at large scale in widely used Open Source Content Management Systems and is funded by Science Foundation Ireland. The position offers for the successful candidate an annual stipend, course fees and conference travel when presenting. The DERI Unit for Reasoning and Querying focuses on improving the scalability and investigating the adequacy of traditional reasoning and query answering techniques for the Web, where several classical assumptions no longer hold as data is heterogeneous, distributed, possibly incomplete or contradictory, structured in different levels of granularity, varying in levels of trust and accessible only by following implicit or explicit security policies. Research is performed in collaboration with other DERI units and industrial partners. The Candidate Applicants should hold an excellent primary degree in a relevant discipline with industrial project experience, such as active website development with Content Management Systems being a distinct advantage. Applicants should have a strong interest in the area of Linked Data with an understanding of its application and use. Applicants must have a background in concrete CMS systems such as for instance Drupal, Joomla!, Typo3, Plone, etc.; any knowledge about other CMSs is a bonus, programming skills in Java or scripting languages such as PHP, JavaScript is desirable. Applicants must be highly motivated with the ability for independent and critical thought. Successful applicants are expected to combine scientific work with application-oriented research and development in collaborative projects funded by national and European funding agencies. Application Please submit your application (including cover letter outlining suitability, a brief outline of your preferred methodology, full CV and contact details for three referees) to hr.ie@deri.org with the subject line 'Post-graduate fellowship in Semantic Web Technologies for Content Management Systems', by 5 pm on Friday, July 10th 2009. For further information please contact Dr. Axel Polleres or St¨¦phane Corlosquet. PhD Fellowship in Distributed Large Scale Reasoning over Semantic Web data The research Unit for Semantic Web Reasoning and Querying at the Digital Enterprise Research Institute (DERI) of the National University of Ireland, Galway invites applications for a PhD fellowship position. DERI a leading research institute in semantic technologies offers a stimulating, dynamic and multi-cultural research environment, excellent ties to research-groups worldwide and close collaboration with industrial partners. The DERI Unit for Reasoning and Querying focuses on improving the scalability and investigating the adequacy of traditional reasoning and query answering techniques for the Web, where several classical assumptions no longer hold as data is heterogeneous, distributed, possibly incomplete or contradictory, structured in different levels of granularity, varying in levels of trust and accessible only by following implicit or explicit security policies. Research is performed in collaboration with other DERI units and industrial partners. The PhD fellowship is funded by Science Foundation Ireland and offers for the successful candidate an annual stipend, course fees and conference travel when presenting. The Candidate Applicants should:     * hold an excellent primary degree or Masters qualification in MsC in Computer Science or related discipline (technical informatics, etc.)     * have Programming experience, preferably in C++/Java and Prolog     * bring interests in algorithms, mathematical logics and formal reasoning     * show willingness to collaborate with others and work effectively as a member of a team Desirable:     * Preliminary experience to give technical presentations and prepare reports/papers for publication     * Preliminary publication history or proof of previous work (student conference presentation, etc)     * Ability to work, research and learn independently     * Industrial project experience being a distinct advantage. Topic The main idea of the Semantic Web is (1) to attach meta-information to web resources and (2) to do formal reasoning on this meta-information. The World Wide Web Consortium defines several languages to represent (RDF/OWL/OWL2) and query (SPARQL) such information. However, querying and reasoning on web-scale requires non-traditional techniques. Our aim is to have a scalable framework for the execution of queries written in the SPARQL language over large OWL knowledge bases. One promising idea is to transform SPARQL [1] and the problem of querying OWL data into the Logic Programming domain [2] where research on parallelisation and distributed execution has been carried out for more than 20 years. The work shall also involve incorporating research results into prototypes successfully deployed on the Web such as the YARS2 [3] federated SPARQL engine within the Semantic Web Search Engine (SWSE) project. Application Please submit your application (including cover letter outlining suitability, a brief outline of your preferred methodology, full CV and contact details for three referees) to hr.ie@deri.org with the subject line 'PhD Fellowship in Distributed Large Scale Reasoning over Semantic Web data', by 5 pm on Friday, July 10th, 2009.    Êղؠ  ·ÖÏí   ¶¥(0)
