Macro-Programming Multi-Agent Systems: A Framework for Artificial Collective Intelligence (Blue Sky Ideas Track)
Conference
2026
International Foundation for Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems / ACM
FoMaSE Project
FoMaSE (Foundations for Macroprogramming-based Software Engineering) is a basic research project
led by principal investigator Roberto Casadei that was awarded the Italian FIS3 Starting Grant for ~€1.1M.
It aims to investigate ways for addressing the micro-macro link and artificial collective intelligence by a computer science and software engineering perspective, enabling predictable design of intelligent services and applications (for smart cities and beyond) backed by autonomous artificial collectives.
