looking for a skilled computational linguist / programmer to work on
document clustering, automatic indexing and subject domain recognition
for the period June 1998 to May 1999 (twelve months).

states.
Candidates should have the following skills:
* Good programming skills and experience in a programming
language suitable to build the prototype document clustering
system such as PERL, C++ or C; Knowledge of Prolog, AWK,
Visual C++, Visual Basic or Java would be a plus.
* Knowledge of WindowsNT and UNIX.
* Good working knowledge of English and the ability to write
reports in English; knowledge of French; German and Italian
would be a plus.
* Previous experience with systems for word or document clustering
would be a plus.
* Self-motivation, flexibility, team spirit and good
communication skills.
* EU member state nationality.
The Joint Research Centre (JRC) and Ispra
As the corporate research centre of the European Commission, the JRC
maintains a neutral and impartial status which has led to the
development of activities in the areas of certification,
standardisation and accreditation. The Ispra site of the JRC employs
approximately 1800 people and is thus the biggest of the five JRC
sites in Europe. Its staff engage in a variety of scientific areas,
including the Environment, Space Applications, Advanced Materials and
Systems Safety. The JRC has more than 800 partners involved in more
than 140 collaboration agreements with national research
organisations, universities and private industry. The high-level
research and the multi-disciplinary and multi-national ambience at the
centre attract visiting scientists and students from all over the
world.
The activities of the unit Advanced Techniques for Information
Analysis comprise, among others: support to the Commission's
anti-fraud unit in the Directorate General (UCLAF) and to the
Statistical Office of the EC (EUROSTAT); development of European
databases; image compression and analysis; 3-D imaging; information
retrieval; information processing for the fight against fraud;
handling of large amounts of data; multimedia systems.
Ispra is situated at the South end of the lake 'Lago Maggiore' in
Northern Italy and is surrounded by mountains as well as several other
lakes, being therefore an ideal starting point for many different
outdoors activities. The multi-national community working at the
centre is engaged in a large variety of cultural and sports activities
offering over thirty sports clubs and interest groups. Ispra is
approximately an hour's drive from Milano (1 hour from Milano Linate
airport and 1/2 hour from Milano Malpensa airport).
Interested candidates should send a CV with a covering letter and two
references to the address below. Applications by fax or by email in
plain text or with attachment in Microsoft Word or LaTeX format would
be preferred.
