Summer internships in programming languages and software engineering at IBM Watson

["Thomas Reps" <reps@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Software Technology department at IBM's 
T.J. Watson Research center is looking for smart, energetic and resourceful 
graduate students (Ph.D. or advanced master's candidates) to join a variety of 
projects in the department as 2003 summer interns.  We do research in a 
number of areas, all centered on making program development and maintenance more 
productive, and making the software produced more efficient, more manageable, 
and less failure-prone at runtime. <FONT face=sans-serif 
size=2>Among the topics we pursue are: <FONT face=sans-serif 
size=2>-- tools that support the software life cycle from requirements and 
architecture to testing and deployment <FONT face=sans-serif 
size=2>-- processes, management techniques, and metrics for software 
development -- program understanding, 
debugging, perfomance tuning, and testing tools <FONT face=sans-serif 
size=2>-- software verification tools -- 
program analysis algorithms -- tools and 
techniques for optimization, understanding, and monitoring of complex 
heterogeneous software systems -- 
dynamic and adaptive code optimization <FONT face=sans-serif

-- programming language design, particularly 
for internet scale, distributed or component-based systems <FONT

areas listed above.  The best internship candidates will have a strong 
computer science or mathematics background, excellent implementation skills, and 
research interests that mesh well with one or more of the topics listed 
above. Students interested in summer 
jobs in programming languages and software engineering at IBM Watson should send 
a resume by 28 February 2003 to Nick Mitchell, nickm@xxxxxxxxxx, and also apply
