The BBC exists to enrich people’s lives with great programmes and service that inform, educate and entertain. Its vision is to be the most creative, trusted organisation in the world. We're looking for people not only interested in the cutting edge of the distribution of television programmes over the internet to our audience, but also component technologies encouraging reuse, and collaborative system, specifically interested in using our Kamaelia (mainly python) & Dirac (mainly C++) open source projects. Kamaelia is a research tool for producing anything from PVRs, collaborative whiteboards, games through to streaming servers making parallelism simple through a component approach. Dirac is a next generation wavelet based video codec. The BBC also has a number of other open source projects - which can be found at http://www.bbc.co.uk/opensource/.

Kamaelia's aim is to make it easier and more fun to make software, quickly and maintainably in a way that makes concurrency (eg multicore) easy and fun to work with. The more code that is multicore friendly, the easier we make it for everyone. We are as interested in experienced students as we are in experienced.
