**IMT Mines Albi, a French Grande Ecole**

IMT Mines Albi is a school of the French Ministry for the Economy, Finance and Industry, and is part of Institut Mines-Télécom, a French federal institute of technological universities of science and management.

Institut Mines-Télécom (IMT) comprises 8 public graduate schools, 2 subsidiary schools and 13 associated or affiliated schools, with a total of over 13,600 students. Each year, Institut Mines-Télécom awards more than 4,500 degrees, with a net employment rate for engineering/management graduates (at 6 months) of almost 95%.

29% of students on IMT Master’s and PhD courses are international students. Institut Mines-Télécom has global influence thanks to its diverse network of academic partners. IMT maintains close relations with leading international universities (Technische Universität München (TUM) in Germany, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT Indore), Hankuk University of Foreign Studies...).

Institut Mines-Télécom is a member of the EULiST consortium, European Universities Linking Society and Technology. EULiST brings together ten partners with complementary strengths in the engineering sciences, social sciences and humanities. EULiST aims to develop new solutions adapted to the ecological transition, to respond to the main socioeconomic challenges and build a sustainable future together, with a strong emphasis on technology at the service of society and the transitions it is making.

**Description**:
**Topic**:
This internship represents the first step towards coupling two research-based software systems: R-IO Suite (a software suite supporting inter-organizational collaboration) and GAMA (a multi-agent simulation software suite). This coupling aims to feed GAMA simulations with crisis situation models created by R-IO Suite while providing R-IO Suite with data from simulations built and run by GAMA.

This proposal will focus on the modelling part applied to a case study (flooding) in Oslo (Norway).
The purpose of the model is to explore the potential impacts of a mitigation plan on the simulations that can be built and run by GAMA. To fit this goal, the model will be co-designed with the IMT partner of the MEDiate project, the R-IO Suite software research & development engineers, and the IRD partner of the ATEsT project (expert on the GAMA platform). The model will be implemented using the R-IO Suite software.

**Context**:
This internship is part of the European Horizon project MEDiate (DOI: 10.3030/101074075) and the French ANR project ATEsT (ANR-24-CE39-5449). It will be one of a three-internship program to promote innovative tools to support crisis management handle emergent risks due to climate change.

**Internship’s objectives**:
1. Design and implement a case study model based on the first version of the MEDiate Case study in R-IO Suite to ease the coupling between R-IO Suite and GAMA;
2. Build a conceptual bridge between R-IO Suite metamodel and the test case agent-based model.

**Deliverables**:
Updated R-IO Suite case study and a paper submitted to a computer science conference, including a brief literature review on existing couplings between emergency decision support systems and simulation tools.

**Profil**:
**Required Skills**:

- Complex systems modelling;
- UML modelling;
- Systems analysis;
- English proficiency.

A strong interest in applied computer science, risk management, programming, and software architecture is expected.
- French proficiency is a plus_
