Subject: [ACT-R-users] ACT-R Software update
Message-ID: <F47F13BE7C752C74158C4446@actr6b.psy.cmu.edu>


The ACT-R 7 software available from the software page on the ACT-R website
<http://act-r.psy.cmu.edu/software/> has been updated.  The current version
is now 7.13.6-<2917:2019-08-20>.

This update adds another application which can be used to access the basic
ACT-R Environment tools from a browser (stepper, inspectors for declarative,
procedural, buffers, visicon, and audicon, the ability to load models and
Lisp experiments, and interaction with tasks created using the AGI tools).
That can be used in addition to, or instead of, the normal ACT-R Environment
application, and should be sufficient for working through the ACT-R tutorial
tasks.

The standalone versions include a script/batch file to run it and some
brief instructions in the readme.txt file.  In the source code distribution
the applications can be found in the examples/connections/nodejs directory
along with the corresponding source code.

If you have any questions or problems with the new version please let me know.

Dear ACT-R users,

Our lab in Seattle is looking for a postdoc! See the ad below for details.
Please contact me if you are interested or if you have any questions!

--Andrea

The Cognition and Cortical Dynamics Laboratory (CCDL, sites.uw.edu/ccdl) at
the University of Washington, Seattle, is looking for a 2-year postdoc to
join a new research project using large-scale neuroimaging data to study,
compare, and examine cognitive architectures, with particular focus on the
Common Model of Cognition. An example of this research approach and goals
can be found in this pre-print: doi.org/10.1101/703777

The ideal candidate would have a Ph.D. in computer science, neuroscience,
psychology, or cognitive science, and have experience with fMRI or M/EEG
data analysis and/or cognitive architecture. Salary and benefits will be
competitive and commensurate with the candidate's experience.

Although located in Seattle and under the supervision of Dr. Andrea Stocco,
the postdoc will join a multi-university project that includes Drs.
Christian Lebiere (Carnegie Mellon), John Laird (University of Michigan),
and Paul Rosenbloom (University of Southern California).

The CCDL is a multidisciplinary research lab, with access to EEG, fMRI, and
TMS facilities. The University of Washington is a large and highly
interdisciplinary institution and the largest receipient of federal grants
in the US. The city of Seattle is diverse and vibrant, and is home to
several research institutions as well major software and tech companies.

If you are interested, please contact Dr. Andrea Stocco at <stocco at uw.edu>
