Jobs & Appointments

The Cooperative Multi-Agent System (SMAC) group of the IRIT Lab in Toulouse, France is offering 2 PhD positions: both positions are related to the ANR Project GEN* (http://www.genstar.fr) which aims at providing tools and methods for the generation on synthetic populations for agent-based social simulations. The PhDs will conduct their research at the University Toulouse 1 Capitole (http://www.ut-capitole.fr) in the IRIT laboratory (http://www.irit.fr). Position 1: Models for the […]

A one year post-doctoral opportunity with the University of Dundee (but located at The James Hutton Institute in Aberdeen) is available to work on the MIRACLE project (http://wici.ca/new/research/digging-into-data-did-research/) funded by the Digging into Data challenge (http://www.diggingintodata.org/). The MIRACLE project focuses on outputs of agent-based models, and aims to create web-based tools enabling practitioners to apply data mining tools and visualisation techniques to the […]

Project Description: Economic and financial engineering studies economic and financial systems by means of a multidisciplinary approach involving competences arising from engineering, economics, computer science, mathematics and physics. In this context, the research activity will be focused on modelling and implementing an artificial financial economy based on heterogeneous interacting agents and on developing the software platforms for simulations that will provide a powerful and […]

The Chair of Human-Environment Relations at the Department of Geography, University of Munich, has an inter- and transdisciplinary orientation and studies the question of transition towards sustainability. Key issues thereby are the processes in Human-Environment Systems which are at the interface of individual decision-making, social structure, governance, and environment. Our research fields include sustainable resource management (e.g., energy, water, phosphorous); sustainable regional […]

We are seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Researcher in the field of Earth Science and Ecology for two years on a full-time basis. Within the co-operation project ‘Emerging patterns in coupled systems’ between the University of Amsterdam and the Free University of Amsterdam, the candidate will join and strengthen a multi-disciplinary group (5 PhD students, a Postdoc and several staff members) for developing agent-based models (ABMs) of human-environment systems to answer a variety of […]

Hi I am a PhD candidate enrolled in DBA program at GEM Frnace. My topic of interest is in agent based computational economics (ACE) and especially it is about modelling of testable propositions in divine knowledge (Quran, Bible, Gosple etc.) and studying their impact on welath distribution. There are plenty of web resources but I find difficulty finding some suitable co supervisor who can advise me on this. I have been exploring Tesfatsion’s website which is really an ocean for all ABM […]

Funding is available for one post-doctoral fellowship with the Canadian Network for Aquatic Ecosystem Services (CNAES). The fellowship is based out of Western University in London, Ontario in collaboration with Alberta Innovates in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The project will involve scenario analysis to develop alternative futures of forest aquatic ecosystem services and assess the economic and ecological risks of policy options under alternative futures. The successful candidate will be […]

The Dynamics Lab at University College Dublin seeks applications for a Post-doctoral position. The postdoctoral researcher will be expected to work primarily on the project entitled Autonomic Home Area Network Infrastructure and Agent-Based Models. As part of the Dynamics Lab project, the post-doctoral researcher will be expected to use an Agent Based Modelling (ABM) approach to simulate and test various realistic alternatives for domestic energy user behaviour and outcomes within the […]

The Center for Complexity in Business at the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business seeks applications for a postdoctoral fellowship for the 2014-2015 school year. The mission of the Center for Complexity in Business is to become the premier international academic research center for the application of complex systems method to business and management science. This postdoctoral fellowship position will aid in helping the Center achieve this mission through research in […]

We are seeking a Post Doctoral Researcher to join an international project on the development of methods for analysis and visualization of ‘big data’ from computational agent-based models (ABMs) of coupled human-natural systems. This vacancy is part of a multidisciplinary multinational MIRACLE project (MIning Relationships Among variables in large datasets from CompLEx systems). MIRACLE is a joint project between the Center for Social Dynamics & Complexity at the Arizona State University […]
