[beasiswa] [info] 2 PhD/Postdoc positions - Formal semantics/logic, quantitative reasoning, normative agents

 

** JOB OPENING: TWO PhD/Postdoc POSITIONS **  ** FORMAL SEMANTICS & LOGIC, QUANTITATIVE REASONING, NORMATIVE AGENTS **   ** with Dr. M. Birna van Riemsdijk and Prof. Dr. Catholijn Jonker, Delft University of Technology **  ** Deadline for application: December 15th, 2014 **      ---------------  JOB DESCRIPTION  ---------------      The purpose of this email is to solicit applications for two PhD/postdoc positions (PhD: 4 years, postdoc: 2 years), attached to a newly funded NWO Vidi grant obtained by Birna van Riemsdijk.       The project is entitled Computational Reasoning for Socially Adaptive Electronic Partners (CoreSAEP). The research lies in the intersection of theoretical computer science (formal semantics, temporal logic) and multi-agent systems (agent programming, normative systems). The overall aim of the project is to develop a reasoning framework that combines logic and quantitative techniques for Socially Adaptive Electronic Partners (SAEPs) that adapt their behavior to norms and values of people. This becomes more and more important as technology becomes an integral part of our daily lives. The computational reasoning techniques are aimed at determining when and to what extent norm-compliance can be guaranteed, and deciding what to do if in exceptional situations a norm cannot or should not be complied with. We will implement the reasoning framework to evaluate its run-time behavior.       The associated research posts will be in the following areas:      POST 1 - formal semantics, temporal logic & normative agents (vacancy number: EWI2014-29)  POST 2 - quantitative reasoning, logic & normative agents (vacancy number: EWI2014-34)      More information on the project and the team you will be working in, can be found on http://ii.tudelft.nl/~birna/projects/CoreSAEP.html. For further information about the positions, please contact Birna van Riemsdijk via email (m.b.vanriemsdijk@tudelft.nl).      Salary for a PhD position is EUR2083 to EUR2664 per month gross, and for a postdoc position EUR2427 to EUR3831 per month gross.      ------------  REQUIREMENTS  ------------      The applicant:  * Has a Master's degree in computer science or artificial intelligence. If applying for a postdoc, a PhD is also required.  * Has good command of the English language.  * Has a willingness to try new things and learn from others, has an eye for detail, and stamina.      ------------  HOW TO APPLY  ------------      Applications will be accepted until all positions have been filled. The first round of interviews will be conducted based on applications received before *** December 15th 2014 ***.      To apply, please submit the following application material to Hr-eemcs@tudelft.nl and state the vacancy number in the subject line of the email:      (1) Curriculum Vitae (with publications if you have any).  (2) Course lists with grades and degree certificates  (3) A letter of application in which you explain both your motivation and the relevance of your skills and experience for this research project. The motivational letter should be on-topic, generic letters will cause your application to be rejected immediately.    (4) A list of 3 (academic) references that we can contact  (5) When applying for a PhD position: your MSc thesis in English (or alternatively if your MSc thesis is not in English, a 5-page summary of your MSc thesis in English). When applying for the postdoc position: a copy of your PhD thesis (or a draft thereof) and a detailed list of your publications.
