RESEARCH POSITION AVAILABLE
Servio Logic Corporation invites applications fo a research position
starting, preferably, in January 1984. The position is available for six
months to one year (possibly longer). [That is, they will consider a
faculty member on leave or sabbatical, or someone looking for a permanent
position.] Applicants should have a strong theoretical background in
computer science, especially propositional logic or database theory.
Servio is producing an advanced database system that supports a set-
based, temporal data model, with an object-oriented programming
interface. The position includes work on a translation algorithm
from predicate calculus statements to algebraic operations on sets,
with emphasis on correctness and on optimization. The applicant
would be working with research and development engineers having experience
in database hardware, systems and languages.
The working environment at Servio is pleasant. We have two VAX 750's,
a Xerox Dolphin running Smalltalk, a laser printer, and a complete
hardware laboratory. The company occupies the top two floors of the
Georgia Pacific Building in downtown Portland. The Pacific beaches
and some 200 state parks lie 65 miles west. Mt. Hood, which affords
year-round skiing and excellent hiking, lies 60 miles east of Portland.
Mt. St. Helens, 50 miles north, provides occasional excitement not
readily available in other parts of the country. The weather is
temperate, with both mild summers and winters.
Because we are a small company, the work of each individual is important.
Our work groups are small and the atmosphere is informal.
Applicants should telephone or send resumes to:
