TurtleKit: Java library for simulating MAS



Research interests

Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) refers to systems composed of autonomous entities interacting through an environment. In the field of computer science, they have numerous purposes, ranging from the development of software addressing issues involving collective intelligence (e.g. collective robotics, agent-based heuristics, etc.) to the study of natural or artificial complex systems where entities interact non linearly (e.g. ecosystems, social insects, crowds, road traffic, etc.).

In this scope, I am especially interested in Multi-Agent Based Simulation (MABS). My contributions to this field cover both theoretical (formal and conceptual models) and practical (generic software tools) aspects, and is applied considering various academic and industrial purposes.
