The Networks and Virtual Environments (GREV) group focuses its research on distributed systems interconnection networks, distributed virtual environments and the development of scalable multi-agent systems. These three types of systems are transversal to different types of applications, but we have mainly applied them to areas as diverse as archaeology, urban mobility, online videogames, computational genetics and social sciences.
Since its foundation, the GREV has been conducting its research integrated and in permanent collaboration with the Consolideer ACCA team, composed by research groups from four Spanish universities (the GREV and groups from the UPV, UCLM and UMU). Over the past few years, the group has initiated interdisciplinary collaborations with research groups in the fields of Computational Genomics and Social Sciences.
- Research in the fields of Computer Architecture and Technology and Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence.
- Large-scale multi-agent systems
Development of multi-agent simulation systems applied to social and healthcare systems, so that they can simulate not only the individual behaviour of each agent, but also the global behaviour of the system as an addition of individual behaviour.
- Simulation and visualisation of complex behaviours
Simulation models for animation of complex behaviours in interactive graphics applications, including physical behaviours (fluids, granular systems, etc.) and behaviours based on artificial intelligence (reinforcement learning, etc.).
- Collaborative Augmented Reality (CAR)
This research line aims to improve the performance of Collaborative Augmented Reality (CAR) systems and applications, building on the group’s previous experience in Distributed Virtual Environments.
- High-performance computing for computational genomics
Developments in high-performance computing, using advanced computer architectures, for the processing and analysis of methylation in genomic data produced by Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS).
