Ph.D. in Automation at CRAN (Centre de Recherche en Automatique de Nancy, France). My research is concerned with distributed decision-making systems. This kind of systems can supports Strategic, Tactical, Operational, Control and Execution decision levels. These systems use a high-technology structure and a cooperation-based organisation implemented by intelligent entities with both, physical and information-based components. The objective of the research in this area is the design and implementation of fully or semi-autonomous decision systems, showing properties such self-organisation and self-adaptation improving systems flexibility.
