UID:485d947e3956693a81d48cbfd2dcb8a13541534bb5ca9cdc55aef97e
CATEGORIES:Call for proposal
DESCRIPTION:Aim:  In this call\, we are particularly interested in resear
 ch work that tackles the scientific and technical challenges we face in de
 veloping and deploying Web Enabled Simulation and that could also lead to 
 longer and deeper collaboration between partners from the academic researc
 h community and our WW project team. WW is a Web Enabled Simulation (WES)\
 , in which user communities and their interactions and behaviors are simul
 ated using machine learning\, while the real platform infrastructure is bo
 th directly executed by the simulation and also is\, itself\, simulated in
  various off-line and synthetic versions.\n\nKey Focus Areas:  \n \n\n	T
 esting Validation and Verification\n	Scalability: Cyber-Cyber Digital Twin
  Scalability\, Prediction\, and Optimisation\n	Behaviour: Modeling User Be
 haviours and Counter-Factual Interventions\n\n\nApplication Deadline: 07 J
 uly 2021\n\nFunding covers: research funds ideally cover the following: gr
 aduate or post-graduate students’ employment/tuition\; other research co
 sts (e.g.\, equipment\, laptops\, incidental costs)\; travel associated wi
 th the research (conferences\, workshops\, summits\, etc.)\; overhead for 
 research gifts is limited to 5%\n\nFour to five awards up to $100\,000 eac
 h are anticipated. Payment will be made to the proposer’s host universit
 y as an unrestricted gift.\n\nLink to full details: 2021 RFP on agent-base
