Part-time undergraduate research opportunity - paid
Student programmer needed for natural language processing research project
10 hours/week, pay rate is DOE
This project, under EE Prof. Mari Ostendorf, involves automatic analysis of
multiparty text (e.g. wiki discussions) to extract information about social
interaction. The system involves communicating with a web server to exchange
information with collaborating researchers at other sites working with the
same data.
The candidate will be responsible for a variety of coding tasks, including:
- maintaining and making major modifications to a simple Tomcat-based web
service and its associated clients, using provided WSDLs
- interfacing the Tomcat-based web service with existing research software
written in C++, Java, and Perl
- using and modifying existing scripts to interface with a MySQL database
- running other custom software provided by the researchers.
The successful candidate must be fluent in Java, and comfortable with perl,
UNIX, and shell scripting. Tomcat and SOAP/HTTP experience is highly desired
(experience with Apache or other web servers may be substituted.) Experience
with MySQL and text processing techniques will be very helpful but not
required.
For more information or to apply, contact Brian Hutchinson

NASA-APL Internship Program is now accepting applications
I am pleased to announce the launch of the 2011 NASA / Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) application. It is online and available at http://www.APLapp.com.
Since 2004, the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) has offered summer projects to students interested in working on NASA missions or space-related research opportunities at APL. Students participating in the NASA/APL Internship Program will work at APL, and will contribute to current and future missions during their assignments in the Space Department. APL's Civilian Space Business Area makes critical contributions to the missions of its major sponsor, NASA, to meet the challenges of space science. They conduct research and space exploration; develop and apply space science, engineering, and technology--including the production of one-of-a-kind spacecraft, instruments, and subsystems; and focus primarily on the science discipline of space physics and planetary science. The Laboratory has built instruments and spacecraft to destinations such as Pluto, Mercury, the Sun and our moon. Continuing these challenges, APL is supporting NASA as it implements initiatives to explore the reaches of our solar system. The 399-acre campus, 20 miles north of Washington, DC, is home to 4,100 men and women who work on more than 400 programs that protect our homeland and advance the nation's vision in research and space science. http://civspace.jhuapl.edu
Timeline
Below are relevant deadlines.
The NASA/APL program does not depend on funding from Space Grant, though assistance would be appreciated and will allow the program to place more students on NASA or space related projects.
