*Skills required:* Multi-agent architectures, parallel architectures,
agent-based simulation, programming skills (particularly java),
industrial/research project management.

*Job description: *CEA-LIST participates in a large number of projects
involving the management and simulation of energetic systems at different
scales (from the building level to the city). During the last four years,
the multi-agent team has developed a multi-agent platform for the energy
management. In this context, the successful candidate is expected to
contribute to:

- supervision of non-permanent staff (post-docs, phd students, …)

- the evolution of the multi-agent system platform and its possible
generalization to other application domains (health systems, transport,
security, …)

effective in the future.

The CEA-LIST Institute focuses its research activities on developing
innovative technologies for smart and complex systems. Its R&D programs,
with potentially major economic and social implications, center on
interactive systems (ambient intelligence), embedded systems (architecture,
software and systems engineering), sensors and signal processing
(industrial control systems, health, security and metrology). Dedicated to
technological research, CEA LIST's more than 700 researchers and
technicians strive to encourage innovation and technology transfer through
long-term industrial partnerships. The dynamism of the Institute's teams,
their project-based culture and their consistently high standard of
scientific excellence underpin this objective.
