EE research credit project – ugrads needed

Dear students,

 

We are looking for one or two undergraduate students to take on an XML programming project in Microsoft Word, starting immediately. The initial position is for 499 research credit, it may be converted to a paid position if the project proceeds successfully. Up to 10 EE 499 credits can be applied towards graduation requirements.

 

Here is partial description of the task.

 

  1. We wish to to capture the source files prepared in WORD and convert them to XML using the JATS DTD. The templates need to make that conversion as straightforward and error-free as possible. The full-text XML should make it easier to render on multiple devices.
  2. It is important that the files we serve are accessible for vision-impaired people. We need Word templates that support accessibility features that are maintained even when converted to PDF for delivery. We expect that if we can convert to XML, accessibility will be enhanced.

 

 

Sensors, Energy, and Automation Laboratory is focused primarily on the design of novel medical devices and energy-saving industrial technologies.

General information about the lab is on SEAL Website: www.ee.washington.edu/research/seal

 

If interested, please send your cover letter (email), resume, and unofficial transcript to Prof. Alexander Mamishev, mamishev@uw.edu. Please describe your prior experience with XML, if any.

 

Best wishes,

 

Alexander Mamishev
