E-SWARM: Engineering Swarm Intelligence Systems. E-SWARM is a project funded by the European Research Council - Advanced Grants program of the European Union (Grant 246939). Its goal is to develop a rigorous engineering methodology for the design and implementation of artificial swarm intelligence systems. 2010-2015.

Swarmanoid: Towards Humanoid Robotic Swarms. Swarmanoid is a project sponsored by the Future and Emerging Technologies program of the European Community (IST-022888). Its goal is the design, implementation and control of a swarmanoid, that is, a novel distributed robotic system made of heterogeneous, dynamically connected, small autonomous robots. 2006-2010

ANTS: Towards a Foundation of Ant Algorithms. ANTS is a project within the framework of the "Action de Recherche Concertée" (ARC) projects funded by the French Community of Belgium. It is aimed at studying, both theoretically and experimentally, ant algorithms. 2003-2008.

COMP²SYS: COMPutational intelligence methods for COMPlex SYStems. COMP²SYS is an Early Stage Training project funded by the European Commission within the Marie Curie Activities program. 2004-2008.

Evolving a collective consciousness for a swarm of pico-satellites. This is a 4-month study funded by the ARIADNA programme of the European Space Agency. October 2007 - January 2008.

ECAgents: Embodied and Communicating Agents. ECAgents is a project sponsored by the Future and Emerging Technologies program of the European Community (IST-1940). The aim of the project is the development of a new generation of embodied agents that are able to interact directly with the physical world and to communicate between them and with other agents. 2004-2007.

SWARM-BOTS: Swarms of self-assembling artefacts. Swarm-bots is a project sponsored by the Future and Emerging Technologies program of the European Community (IST-2000-31010). Its goal is the study of new approaches to the design and implementation of self-organizing and self-assembling artifacts. 2001-2005.

METAHEURISTICS NETWORK: The Metaheuristics Network is a project sponsored by the Improving Human Potential program of the European Community (HPRN-CT-1999-00106). It is aimed at studying various metaheuristics on different combinatorial optimization problems. 2000-2004.

EvoNeuroFuzzy: Training in Soft Computing Techniques for Optimization and Control. The EvoNeuroFuzzy training site is a project sponsored by the Improving Human Potential program of the European Community (HPMT-CT-2000-00032). It is aimed at training young researchers in the field of soft computing techniques for optimization and control such as fuzzy computing, evolutionary computation, neural computing, ant algorithms, and probabilistic reasoning. 2000-2004.
