It’s the CoSMoS delegation’s last day in La Jolla. We’ve had a very productive week, outlining future work on simulating EAE that a new MRes student is to tackle in the coming academic year, agreeing on an outline for a paper that will publish our results to date on EAE simulation, and piecing together a compelling grant proposal to continue this work. Its been a week of hard, but very productive work. We look forward to the next visit!
As a metaphor for our leaving, and as a taster of how beautiful the climate has been here, we leave you with this rather mediocre sunset…!
This was just prior to seeing the seals on 'Seal Beach'. Hard life [...]
A small group from the CoSMoS project (Jon Timmis, Mark Read and Rich Williams) are in San Diego this week working with Dr. Vipin Kumar (TPIMS) to follow up on the EAE case study. However, Sunday was spent buried in the depths of the USS Midway – a decommissioned aircraft carrier docked in San Diego port.
The CoSMoS contingent is in San Diego reviewing recent results, devising a strategy for future EAE experimentation in silico, structuring a journal paper, and drafting a grant proposal to continue our work with Dr. Kumar.
Is this office big enough [...]
A large group of the CoSMoS project team will be travelling to Odense, Denmark this week to attend the 3rd CoSMoS workshop and the Artificial Life (Alife) XII conference.
The 3rd CoSMoS workshop is being held as a related event of the Alife conference on Thursday 19th August, so anyone attending the conference is more than welcome to come along to our workshop. We have free copies of the proceedings available on a first come, first serve basis. We hope to see [...]
Tick tock, tick tock… and the CoSMoS “workers” are on their way to Kent University, for another fabulo-important meeting. Some of us are called workers because… hmm, this is what we actually are: a variably sized-group of Research Assistants and Research Students from the Universities of York and Kent, doing work for the common good of the modelling and simulating community.
This time of the year we’ve got a good selection of topics, ranging from Adam Sampson‘s thoughts on decoupling different facets of computer simulations (e.g. their visualisation, data analysis, spatial representation), to Antonio Gomez Zamorano‘s work on FPGA-based computer simulations and more. Let’s not forget Tim Hoverd with his secret weapon, “emergent architecture” and Teodor Ghetiu‘s (yes, me) Argument-Driven Validation. The icing on the cake is provided by Jenny Owen, who will shed more light [...]
