Doctoral training programme
The CMA is responsible for the Control, Optimization and Prospective (COP) doctoral specialty, which is part of the MINES-ParisTech doctoral training program and is co-accredited with the Doctoral School STIC (information and communication sciences and technologies) n° 84 at Nice Sophia-Antipolis University.
It covers the following themes:
- Optimization and operational research
- Intertemporal and multi-scale optimization models of the MARKAL/TIMES family
- Control and decision-making mathematics
- Long-term prospective modeling
-
Application of optimization techniques to:
      - energy, carbon and electricity markets
      - market risk
      - finance - Prospective of Energy-Climate issues for Smart Cities, Smart Grids, biofuels, bioenergies (biomass), water, low-carbon society (transport, residential, tertiary, industry, electricity industry), electric vehicles and carbon capture and sequestration technologies
- Stochastic control
- Decision-support
- Identification and inverse problems in biomedical and geophysical applications
- Variational formulations of electromagnetism applied to the issues of electric systems (reliability, losses, networks)
- Embedded critical systems by reactive synchronous language
- Recognition of behaviors by hidden Markov models and reactive synchronous languages
