Andrew Moore, a Carnegie Mellon professor of computer science and robotics will head a new research and engineering facility for Google Inc. in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The facility will create software search tools for Google.

Around 100 new high-tech jobs will be generated over the next few years in the Pittsburg area. This is just one of several offices Google has opened near universities.
