University of Oxford, are delighted to offer this opportunity for an
outstanding researcher of high international standing, who has a track
record of research that has significantly influenced the field of
computer science, and can demonstrate the vision, leadership and
enthusiasm to maintain and develop an internationally leading research
programme in this field, and to further the academic and strategic
development of the department.
The Strachey Professorship is the oldest chair in the Department of
Computer Science, and is named for Christopher Strachey, who founded
Oxford's Programming Research Group in 1965. There have previously been
two holders of this post, Sir Tony Hoare and Professor Samson Abramsky.
