This work takes part of the MAIA
group in LORIA, more information are available on its web site.
My research domain is about multi-agent systems as a modeling paradigm
for complex systems.
Current interest
- Understanding and analysis of
complex systems: providing multi-level/multi-scale multi-agent
models in order to simulate collective behaviour and
analyse the relationships between individual features and collective
properties.
This
activity is grounded on the AA4MM meta-model and its first
implementation by J Siebert. It has grown in several directions and led
to a new implementation
of the software named mecsyco (www.mecsyco.com) which is used for
different proofs of concept examples and smart-grids simulations with
EDF R&D.
More information will be found on mecsyco website.

Other interests and past activities
- Favouring/avoiding
some collective behaviour/properties of the MAS and providing tools to
dynamically adapt the collective behaviour of a
system to maintain it in a desired state.
- Biases of simulation and collective properties. We propose a
formalization of multi-agents models (as Discrete dynamical
systems) to answer the question When observing some collective
behavior, is it a property of the model or a bias of the
implementation choices ? see here
for more details (coll. with N. Fates).
