Women in Science: Manel Barkallah, the computer scientist at the heart of the language of robotics

- EN - NL- FR
On the occasion of the International Day for Women and Girls in Science proclaimed on February 11 by the United Nations General Assembly, discover the portrait and testimonies of UNamur scientists who conduct cutting-edge research in fields such as physics, chemistry, mathematics and computer science. Today: Manel Barkallah, Research and Teaching Assistant in the Faculty of Computer Science. What is your scientific field and what are your studies/research on?. I work in the field of coordination languages in socio-technical systems, i.e. systems that combine humans and software. In this area, I study the formal mechanisms of communication and coordination used by agents (human or machine) in social and technological systems. I am also interested in how different agents work together to achieve common goals and use interdisciplinary concepts from psychology, computer science, and sociology. In this area of research, my supervisor and I are trying to understand how socio-technical systems can be designed to improve coordination and communication between agents.
