Projects & Initiatives
_________
Adaptive and self-organising systems
The research team seeks to develop new innovative techniques and tools for their analysis, design and deployment, are to be conceived. They have to support the designer in “controlling the emergence of adaptive behaviours” and in making qualitative and quantitate predictions about how the system works and about possible design errors.
_________
Data-Centric Genomic Computing (GenData 2020)
The main objective of the project is the creation of new innovative technology solutions to support healthcare systems of the next generation.
_________
