From: Larry Fagan <FAGAN@SUMEX-AIM.ARPA>
Programmer - ONCOCIN Project: Stanford Heuristic Programming Project
This position will involve applications programming for an
oncology protocol management system known as ONCOCIN. This project
with Ted Shortliffe as principal investigator, represents an
application of expert systems to the treatment of cancer patients, and
is currently in daily use by physicians. The job requires significant
experience with artificial intelligence techniques and the LISP or
Interlisp languages. The applicant must be willing to learn an
already existing, large expert system. Masters level training in
computer science and previous experience with personal workstations
are highly desirable. Although the tasks required will be varied, the
emphasis will be on artificial intelligence aspects of the oncology
research work:
*day-to-day management of the Interlisp programming efforts;
*participation in the design as well as the implementation of system
capabilities; *documentation of the system on an ongoing basis
(system overview/description as well as software documentation);
*supervisory coordination of students and part-time programmers who
may also be working on related projects; *assistance with occasional
non-programming matters important to the smooth running of the
project and to the efficient and effective performance of the system
in the clinical environment; *assistance with system demonstrations
for visitors and at meetings; *assistance with preparation of
portions of annual reports and funding proposals; *an ability to work
closely with the Chief Programmer, who will coordinate the Interlisp
efforts with other developing aspects of the total project.
Salary: will follow Stanford University guidelines for Scientific
Programmer III in accordance with the level of training and prior
experience.
