Program changes at the NRC (ouch!)
The NRC has decided to make some program changes, and that includes canceling my program on Information Security, a program on Software Engineering, and a third one on Acoustics. They are also making significant changes to the science and technical library (CISTI).
So, this means that some of Canada’s top experts in these fields are now looking for new positions.
In the Information Security area, we have 8 people who are experts in conducing R&D in a variety of areas, including:
- agent technologies
- biometrics
- cryptographic key management
- data mining
- human-computer interaction
- privacy protection and compliance
- risk analysis and visualization
- secure software
- security protocols
- security systems
- social networks and work flow analysis
- trust management
- usable security
- web crawling
- web services and e-services
If you know of anyone interested in advanced R&D in these areas, please let me know.

Sorry to hear that. Sucks that we’ve got a hiring freeze.
