                      Computer Science Faculty Positions

The Department of Computer Science at  the University of Utah solicits  faculty
applications at  all  professorial  ranks.  The  department  currently  has  15
tenure-track faculty members, as  well as an additional  3 serving in  research
capacities  and  2  as  teaching  faculty.   The  student  population  includes
approximately 200 undergraduates  with full  major status,  60 Master's  degree
students, and 25 PhD students.

Representative research projects include:

Architecture design and test methodologies                         E. Organick
Computer-aided geometric design and graphics           E. Cohen, R. Riesenfeld

The Department operates a  professionally staffed research computing  facility,
encompassing DEC Vax 8600, Vax 785,  DECsystem 2060, and various lesser  vaxes.
An 18-processor BBN Butterfly is imminent.  The facility is interconnected  via
both an Ethernet and broadband local area networks, with a gateway to  Arpanet,
CSNET, and Telenet.  Maintained  workstations include Apollo,  Hewlett-Packard,
Sun, and MacIntosh.  An advanced graphics laboratory houses a large  collection
of equipment for the generation of very high resolution black & white and color
images for  use in  computer aided  design of  both mechanical  and  integrated
circuit systems.  Devices  include several laser  printers, and various  raster
and multi-color plotters.  Robotics  and vision equipment  includes a PUMA  560
robot, laser  range  finder,  and  VICOM  image  processor.   An  instructional
facility consisting of various microprocessors  and a Vax/780 is also  operated
by the Department.  College facilities used  by the department include a  Gould
9080, and a  VLSI fabrication  facility.  Departmental research  operates on  a
well-funded and broadly based program, including an NSF CER award.

Starting date for appointments is 1 July 1986.
