Gianluca Aguzzi
Postdoctoral Researcher and Adjunct Professor at the University of Bologna.
I’m fascinated by all things related to emergence and complexity. My research focuses on engineering collective adaptive systems.
In this field, I am interested in both manual techniques like aggregate computing and multi-agent cooperative reinforcement learning.
Recently, I’ve started exploring the application of foundational models in software engineering, from requirement management to development.
Beyond research, I’m a huge Scala enthusiast, and in my free time (if it even exists!), I use my Nintendo Switch to unwind and reflect.
