The workflow research group in Hewlett Packard Labs, Palo Alto, California,
invites candidates in the workflow, database, and internet areas to apply for
a research staff position started immediately.

We are seeking a candidate who takes pride in the result of his/her research
work, is a team player, has demonstrated good prototype implementation skill,
and enjoys taking challenges outside his/her expertise. The candidate is
expected to make contribution in research as well as technology transfer to
product divisions.

During the past three years, we have prototyped a workflow system supporting
enterprise business process flow management. This prototype supports very high
throughput, reliability and availability. It also supports multiple
communication infrastructures (including CORBA, MQSeries, and Web). Based on
this prototype, an HP product has been developed, which won the best
collaborative computing product award at EMA 97.

We have started a new project to develop an internet-based workflow system to
explore scalability, availability, and performance tradeoffs for mobile and
embedded workflow system, to support electronic commerce and supply chain
management applications. Preference will be given to candidates with good
knowledge in Java, ActiveX, Microsoft NT, CORBA, and OLE will be preferred.

Applications will be considered through August 15.
