[Harman, Mark]

Here is the Facebook Request for funding Proposals on automatically finding and fixing bugs using Web Enabled Simulation (WES).

Deadline: July 15th 2020.
It's a light touch funding process: you need only write a short two page proposal.


- There is a paper about WES here: https://research.fb.com/publications/wes-agent-based-user-interaction-simulation-on-real-infrastructure/
- The request for funding proposals is here: https://research.fb.com/blog/2020/05/new-research-award-opportunities-in-agent-based-user-interaction-simulation/

Relevant research areas include (but are not limited to)

- AI-assisted gameplay
- Causal inference
- Evolutionary computation
- Game theory, graph theory
- Information theory
- Machine learning
- Multi-agent systems
- Predictive modeling
- Programming languages
- Search-based software engineering
- Simulation
- Software repository mining
- Software testing (in particular, social testing)

Looking forward to receiving your research proposals.
