I'm forwarding this message on behalf of Simon Buckingham Shum. I think that
the scholonto project described below is of immense interest to us.

Subject: 2 Jobs: Modelling & Visualizing Research Literatures
Hi HyNICers,
Good to meet some of you at HT/DL. As some of you will already know,
the ScholOnto project intersects closely with HyNIC, and once we're
up and running, could be used directly to help achieve HyNIC's goals.
Please would you consider forwarding this to relevant research and
student groups who might be looking for Java or AI positions...
Thanks!
Simon

The Open University's Knowledge Media Institute is recruiting top
calibre staff to meet the challenge of building a next generation
internet digital library service for disseminating, analysing and
visualizing research literatures. We are looking for a Research
Fellow with experience in knowledge representation (e.g. ontologies,
frame-based representations, description logic, semantic hypertext)
and/or another field of AI, and an interest in the representation and
analysis of scholarly argumentation/discourse. The post concerns the
design and implementation of a knowledge-based, digital library
server which will assist researchers in managing evolving concepts,
perspectives and debates. (A related post will build Java user
interfaces onto the knowledge base.) The appointment will be made on
the Research staff salary scale, UKP16,286 - 24,479 pa, or
UKP22,579 - 30,065, depending on qualifications and experience. You'll be
