NUMEV LabEx Seminar

11th Seminar of the year 2024.

PLEASE NOTE! This event takes place at the Saint-Priest campus.

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

The seminar will present the actions planned to energize the MIPS community starting in January 2025, through the long-term 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 expertise of the cluster's eight joint research units, could initiate the first collaborative dynamics:

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

PTL-COGIT, which complements COLORS, aims to develop the methodologies and tools needed to address 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 living organisms;
• the study of biodiversity.

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

• Exploratory Projects, aimed at promoting emerging collaborations, whose funding will ultimately enable proof of concept or demonstrators;
• Structural Projects, intended for more established projects, enabling the objectives necessary to consider submitting ERC, ANR, or European projects to be achieved.
