According to the qualification, visiting and tenure-track faculty positions can be considered. The starting time of each position is negotiable. Visitors at graduate student level are also invited. The project aims to implement large scale transputer based parallel computer and to develop related system software, scientific and industrial applications. A prototype machine with 256 or more T800 Transputers will be built during 1989. We are currently running B004, B003 based Transputer Development Systems (TDS), and a Transputer array including 64 T800's will be available during the third quarter of this year. Possible research areas are 1. Development of hardware and system software for dynamically allocating Transputer resources. 2. Applications in the area of physics, chemistry, finite element method, neural network and artificial intelligence, robotics, industrial applications including image processing and real-time control, etc. Pohang Institute of Science and Technology (POSTECH) is a newly established research-oriented university in Korea. POSTECH has 9 departments and accepts only first-rate undergraduate and graduate students. In addition, Korea's first particle accelerator, a 2 GeV synchrotron radiation source, will be constructed on the campus beginning this year. POSTECH's Computer Center operates 2 VAX 8800's and an IBM 4381. We also have a VAX 8200(UNIX), a Gould image processor, many SUN, Apollo, Symbolics workstations, and PC's for education and research use. Access to Cray-2 outside the campus will be possible. Applications should be sent to Prof. S. Y. Bang, Department of Computer Science, POSTECH, P.O.
