IT

The uniqueness of the IT department lies in the skills required for a global approach.

Presentation

The originality of the Computer Science department lies in its ability to provide the skills needed for a global approach: at the computational level (optimization and simulation), in software architecture (distributed vs. centralized) and hardware (embedded systems) or in relation to humans (human-machine interaction, knowledge modeling, decision support).

In this approach, artificial intelligence is present in terms of scientific contributions (multi-agent systems, distributed constraint resolution, privacy) or use (deep learning, neural networks...).

A department with 2 themes

The department is organized into two themes: Optimization and Mobility (OptiMob) and Interaction and Agent (InterA).

1) In the design of hybrid approaches combining exact methods, metaheuristics and simulation methods to improve performance in terms of solution quality and robustness.

.

2) At the level of the design of efficient and secure embedded and mobile systems, for the implementation of new approaches in the adaptability of embedded and mobile systems according to application requirements at the hardware, software and communication means levels.

1) At the level of designing models of coordination, reasoning and knowledge to build systems adaptable to different situations

2) At the level of interaction with users, studied in an original way through tangible, implicit and multimodal modes of interaction.

The department's application fields

"Intelligent Transport Systems" and "Health" are the department's 2 major areas of application.

These application fields are part of the ecosystem in which the IT department is positioned:
