Almende Marie Curie International Incoming Fellowships

Postdoctotal Fellowships

Almende BV is a high-tech commercial research company (SME) researching advanced hardware and software-agent technology. Almende in particular investigates self-organized critical agent-based network solutions to sustain and improve the coalition formation and coordination of communication and collaboration across evolving networks of humans and existing ICT infrastructures. The methods studied and developed for building those solutions are based on principles of synergetics, i.e., interaction, self-organization and cooperation amongst human and/or artificial networks, and principles of multi-scale physics renormalization, – and applies and evaluates those agent-based solutions in many classical and novel problem domains ranging from software engineering; health- and home-care; logistics; warehousing; road, air, energy and ICT network management; data, information and knowledge management; grid and cloud computing to swarm robotics.

The technology and knowledge that Almende develops are further commercialized in spin-off companies. Currently, Almende has four daughter companies among which there are ASK Community Systems, DEAL Services and Luna.nl. ASK Community Systems provides its customers intelligent communication and collaboration systems connecting different servicing groups of users depending on their needs. Deal Services markets robust agent-based logistics management solutions. Luna.nl is Rotterdam’s largest Internet Service Provider for the business customer.
