This page tracks the life of the center — upcoming meetings and, over time, an archive of the workshops, tutorials, seminars, and classes connected to SCHEMA. Activities marked SCHEMA are organized or co-organized by center members and are directly tied to our themes.
The inaugural meeting of the center, bringing together PIs and our AFOSR/AFRL program team to align on the research vision, the three themes, and the experimental validation roadmap. Details to follow.
Community activities organized by SCHEMA members, spanning compositional autonomy, control architectures, and multi-agent systems.
