Computational Linguistics starting as soon as possible.

The position is fractional (50%) and temporary, ending 30th September 2008. This
position is suitable for candidates wishing to pursue a PhD in computational
linguistics.

The successful candidate will be a member of the research project 'Linguistic
Description Structures as Data Types' of the collaborative research centre 441
on 'Linguistic Data Structures' (http://tcl.sfs.uni-tuebingen.de/a2/). An

of querying linguistic treebanks. To make these valuable resources accessible
to linguists, the development of powerful query systems with decent runtime
properties is an important goal in computational linguistics.

Duties:
Development and implementation of a query system for treebanks based on tree
automata.

Profile:
The successful candidate must have a four-year degree in computational
linguistics or computer science. He or she should have practical experience in
