Spring week 14 (2019) - 23 (2019) CANCELLED Appl.code: 51102
Part-time, daytime class

ECTS credits: 7.5

Level of education: Second Cycle (master level)

Level: A1N

Prerequisites: The applicant must have a completed Bachlor degree, comparable to a Swedish Bachelor Degree, from an institution of higher education of three years or more. The bachelor degree must include courses in mathematics: calculus algebra and computer engineering; programming, algorithms and data structures. If the applicant''s first language is not Enlglish, knowledge in English must be documented by an internationally recognized proficiency test.

Content: The goal of the course is to provide knowledge and understanding about the fundamental concepts of multi-agent systems and to reinforce those theoretical concepts through practical problem solving. Coordination of autonomous entities - such as robots, software agents or humans - forms the central topic. Practical relevance is shown based on examples of robot teams, agent-based simulation models and other applications.

Teaching Methods: Lectures, theoretical exercises and project.

Assessment:  Project reports and a written exam.
