The Computation and Matter Area (CMA) of the Systems and Practices
Laboratory of the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center is recruiting.

     We are looking for someone to join us in a team effort to conduct
     pioneering research and to build practical software systems for 
     the Smart Matter Diagnostics Project. This person should have 
     knowledge in analyzing complex data and strong software development 
     skills, with experience in at least one of the following: machine
     learning, stochastic decision processes, pattern recognition, image
     analysis, model-based diagnosis, and distributed sensor fusion.  
     Candidates at both Master's and PhD levels will be considered.

CMA is an interdisciplinary group of scientists and engineers, conducting
research that bridges computer science and information technology with
microelectromechanics. CMA is part of PARC's research in Smart Matter, which
is creating the ability to embed large quantities of sensors, actuators, and
computation in the world around us.  The Smart Matter Diagnostics Project is
developing highly scalable techniques to analyze large amounts of sensor
data, to support diagnosis and monitoring of a new generation of sensor-rich
physical systems and processes.

To apply please submit: a cover letter explaining your interest in the Smart
Matter Diagnostics position; a resume; and reprints of publications if
