(For general details of these posts, see http://www.doc.mmu.ac.uk/STAFF/S.Oakey/jobs.html) The department has a developing and expanding research base, and is recognised as one of the leading centres of research within the university. The posts available are fixed term (four year) lecturing posts, with only a small amount of teaching associated with them; hence the term "Research Lectureships". Successful applicants will be expected to have research interests relevent to at least one of the Department's six Research groups. The Logic and Computation group is well known for work in logic (automated reasoning, formal methods and non-classical logics), agent-based systems (theories of agency, agent languages and formal development), and programming languages (executable logics and concurrent languages), and we would be particularly interested in applicants with a strong research background in these areas. For further details on the group's work, together with an indication of the research published this year, access the WWW page http://www.doc.mmu.ac.uk/RESEARCH/LoCo/rladvert/rladvert.html Michael Fisher http://www.doc.mmu.ac.uk/STAFF/M.Fisher Department of Computing M.Fisher@doc.mmu.ac.uk Manchester Metropolitan University tel: (+44) 161 247 1488 Manchester M1 5GD, United Kingdom fax: (+44) 161 247 1483
