| LADSEB-CNR has recently become involved in an European industrial project focused on ontology-driven knowledge management/knowledge extraction in multiple domains. Within this project, we will be committed to build a general reference ontology with lexical links to English and Italian, and to offer methodological consultancy for domain-specific ontology-driven conceptual modeling and information retrieval mainly in the fields of Banking and Insurance.
We are looking for motivated people to join a research project in which the sophisticated ontology design principles we have developed in the past few years will be challenged by very concrete engineering goals.
We are planning for two researchers with a PhD in computer science, computational lingustics, philosophy or equivalent experience, whose salary and formal position will depend on their qualifications. Further research grants are planned for somebody willing to spend some time here working on a PhD topic related to the project.
Contracts are for 1 year starting on September 1st 2000, with the possibility of extending them for up to 2 years.
All these positions require European citizenship; shorter visiting positions may be negotiated with non-European citizens.
