Birchman Participates in an Investigation Project at the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute

February 2010

Álvaro Ortín, partner of Birchman Spain, is participating in the investigation project “ENGINEERING SELF-* VIRTUALLY-EMBEDDED SYSTEMS” (EVE) at the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute (IIIA), a research center belonging to the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC).

The main aim of this project is to apply multi-agent technologies to the engineering of self-* systems composed of software and/or human agents, while paying special attention to those that are to be virtually embedded.
The proposal is to achieve the aim by fulfilling the following three objectives:
  • To design new computational models and algorithms for their application to the achievement of coordination in self-* systems.
  • To develop a simulation environment to test virtually-embedded self-* systems.
  • To construct three proof-of-concept prototypes that illustrate the algorithms and technologies created in the project.
