My current research topic is the emergence of individual and collective
behaviour. The long term goal is to elaborate a theoretical foundation to
or at least an understanding of human knowledge, i.e. how human beings happen
to know what they know.
I managed the CASCAD Team (the pages are
archives only) at the University of Neuchâtel for ten years.
I have been animator of the COLLINE (COLLectif-INteraction-Emergence,
archives only) working group of AFIA and GDR-I3 and responsible for the Working
group SMA (Multi-Agent Systems, archives only)
of GDR-I3.
I am currently managing the team GREEN (Common Pool Ressources Management)
whose aim is to support collective decision making by modelling and simulation
using, among others, multi-agent systems.
I am co-editor of 5 books and author and co-author of 25 publications.
