Dear colleagues,

One PhD scholarship is available on the topic of "Implicit Computational
Complexity". The starting date is september or october 2009.

The scholarships is funded by the French national research agency (ANR) within
the COMPLICE project (Implicit Computational Complexity, Concurrency and
Extraction) (http://www-lipn.univ-paris13.fr/complice/).

The project aims at developing implicit computational complexity and in
particular its applications to functional programming, program extraction from
proofs and concurrent systems. It is organized in 3 main parts:
Part I. Semantic and logic foundations.
Part II. Applications to the functional setting: typing, program extraction.
Part III. New directions: concurrent systems, parallel complexity classes..

The successful applicant will work within the Logic, Computation and Reasoning
(LCR) research team at the LIPN, the computer science laboratory of Paris 13
University (http://www-lipn.univ-paris13.fr/). The PhD will be supervised
depending of the applicant qualifications and interests in the LIPN parts of the
project.

Please do not hesitate to send an email for further information about the
project.

Best regards
V. Mogbil
