Current projects

Adapt4EE

Incorporating energy efficiency criteria in the design phase of buildings, by modeling and simulating actual use.

ALL4Green

Active collaboration in datacenter ecosystems to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

BRIDGE

Improving cooperation and interaction between different agencies during crises.

DELIVER

A EUREKA project coordinated by Almende. The goal is to implement perpetual planning in logistics, through agent technology.

Dynamic Contracting

This PhD-project will use multi-agent modeling to investigate and enhance the tendering process in government contracting in infrastructure.

EWiDS

Extreme Wireless Distributed Systems: part of the COMMIT program, this project aims do develop very large wireless sensor-actuator networks for use in crowd control.

FireSwarm

Developing a swarm of small, autonomous AUV's to detect and monitor for natural fires.

FIT4Green

This FP7 project aims at contributing to ICT energy reducing efforts by creating an energy-aware layer of plug-ins for data centre automation frameworks.

Intelligent Trading Agents

This PhD-project will design, build and assess a multi-agent system to support decision-making in the logistics domain.

i-PE

Designing an intelligent, playful environment that will stimulate people to become more social and active.

IUA

Interaction for Universal Acces: part of the COMMIT program, this project will develop virtual and mixed reality environments to improve interaction between humans and computers.

Patient-Centered Health Care

This PhD-project investigates how ethics can be taken into account at design time of systems that support the communication in health care.

Replicator

This FP7 project aims to develop an advanced robotic system, consisting of a large swarm of small autonomous robots that can self-assemble.

ROD 2.0

Disclosing both municipal open data and user-generated content in the Rotterdam Open Data Store.

SEAM4US

Reducing energy consumption in underground metro stations through environmental and user modeling and control.

SIMPLE

Creating a middleware platform to bridge the gap between WSN (wireless sensor networks) and RFID (radio frequency identification) hardware, and business IT software.

STORM

Developing large scale wireless sensor networks. The Almende focus within STORM is on algorithms and distributed pattern recognition.

SUPPORT

Supporting and enhancing the complex logistical networks of the Port of Rotterdam, with the help of a multi-agent system.
