LabEx NUMEV seminar

11th Seminar of the year 2024.

This event takes place on the Saint-Priest campus.

The NUMEV-MIPS Seminars are open to a wide audience of students and researchers from all disciplines, who wish to find out more about the current research areas of the NUMEV-MIPS (Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics and Systems) community, or about opportunities to develop their skills and know-how.

The seminar will present the actions planned to animate the MIPS community from January 2025, through the long thematic projects COLORS and COGIT.

Drawing on the multidisciplinary expertise of the MIPS cluster, PTL COLORS aims to develop and analyze methods for optimizing resources (digital, material, energy, etc.) and knowledge, in response to the challenges of long-term sustainable development.

Two major research topics, representative of the skills of the eight UMRs in the cluster, will be able to initiate the first collaborative dynamics:

• optimizing energy resources;
• digital sobriety and software optimization.

The PTL-COGIT, which complements COLORS, aims to develop the methodologies and tools needed to tackle the societal challenges targeted by the University of Montpellier. As with COLORS, the following two examples will serve as a starting point for collaborative dynamics:

• multi-scale exploration of the living world;
• the study of biodiversity.

Although scientifically independent, the MIPS-COLORS and MIPS-COGIT PTLs are part of a common governance and scientific structure. In order to accelerate the transformative effects, two types of project will be supported:

• Exploratory Projects, designed to promote emerging collaborations, the funding of which will eventually lead to proofs of concept or demonstrators;
• Structuring Projects, intended for more established projects, enabling them to achieve the objectives required to submit ERC, ANR or European projects.
