UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN RESEARCH WORKER EdCAAD, the Edinburgh Computer Aided Architectural Design Research Unit, is actively forging links between knowledge engineering and CAD, focus- ing on the Prolog logic programming language. Recent advances at EdCAAD include C-Prolog for 32-bit machines with C compilers and Seelog, a graphics front end to Prolog. The Unit offers an excellent computing environment as a leading UK UNIX site, with its own VAX 11/750, a PDP 11/24 and a large range of text and graphics terminals, serving a small user community. Current SERC supported research is aimed at building description tech- niques, including drawing input with associated meaning attached to drawings. This project has a vacancy for a research worker preferably with AI experience. The research post is for an initial period of 18 months, on the research salary scale 1A, with placement according to qualifications and experience. Enquiries and applications should be addressed to Aart Bijl, EdCAAD, Department of Architecture, University of Edinburgh, 20 Chambers Street, Edinburgh EH1 1JZ, tel. 031 667 1011 ext. 4598.
