                   RESEARCH POSITION AVAILABLE:
       Hardware implementation of artificial neural networks 


A research position is available in the field of hardware implementation 
of artificial neural networks, at the Department of Computer Systems, Uppsala 
University, Sweden.

The position is open to a scientist with a solid background in neural 
networks and familiarity with analog and digital electronic circuit 
construction as well as VLSI design. A candidate of postdoctoral or 
equivalent status will be preferred.

The position will be in a new project for developing neural network 
algorithms and hardware, aiming at VLSI implementations. The researcher 
is expected to play a major role in this project. The position is tenable 
for one year at minimum, possibly longer.

Uppsala University is Scandinavia's oldest university, founded in 1477, and 
offers a stimulating research environment. The Department of Computer Systems 
conducts research on artificial neural networks, real-time systems and 
formal methods for concurrent systems. 

The neural networks group was formed in 1991, and consists of four graduate 
students supervised by Associate Professor Lars Asplund. We have published 
reports on neural network-based control of digital telecom networks, and on
hardware architectures for neural networks.

Further information may be obtained from Associate Professor Lars Asplund, 
Department of Computer Systems, Uppsala University, Box 325, S-751 05 
Uppsala, Sweden; fax +46 18 55 02 25; email asplund at docs.uu.se.

Applicants should send a full CV, sample papers and the names and addresses 
of two professional referees to the above address.

Closing date: August 8, 1994.
