About
Jose M. Vidal is a Professor and the Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of South Carolina. He is an expert in multiagent systems, focusing on both the theoretical aspects of coordinating large numbers of autonomous agents and the practical implementation of agent-based simulations. His interdisciplinary research often bridges the gap between computer science, economics, and social sciences, exploring topics such as algorithmic game theory, mechanism design, and distributed algorithms. Dr. Vidal is the author of the open-access textbook Fundamentals of Multiagent Systems and is well-known for his use of the NetLogo modeling environment to demonstrate emergent behaviors in complex systems. In addition to his research, he oversees the Senior Capstone Project program at USC and maintains a popular educational YouTube channel where he shares coding tutorials on web applications and software engineering.
