About the institute
ANULUM Institute is an independent research and technology practice in Marbach SG, Switzerland, run by Miroslav Šotek. It works on fusion reactor systems and their control, quantum phase dynamics, stochastic and neuromorphic computing, and the coordination and verification of AI agents, and it publishes the software and the papers that come out of that work under open licences.

Research groups
The portfolio registry lists 40 projects, 34 of them public, in five research groups.
- Agentic Coordination, Assurance and Continuity Systems · coordination, verification and continuity infrastructure for AI agents and their outputs
- SC Neuromorphic Computing Systems · stochastic and spiking computation, from simulation to hardware-oriented compilation
- SCPN Quantum Computing Systems · synchronised phase dynamics on quantum hardware
- SCPN Reactor Systems · the solver laboratory, a shared kernel library and the device-family cores of the fusion programme
- SCPN Systems Integration and Control · control engines and the coherence-control compiler that connect the physics to actuation
Method
Project pages link published capability inventories and evidence where these are available. Inventories distinguish implemented software from research and hardware readiness; a dated release does not by itself demonstrate physical performance. A device core at computational-prototype maturity is called that. Solvers run behind fail-closed gates: a capability that cannot be validated refuses rather than approximates. Claims in manuscripts are classified as measured, derived, projected, literature-supported or a limitation, and each is bound to a command, dataset, commit or primary source before a PDF is accepted; negative and null results stay in.
Publishing
Archived work receives a Zenodo DOI. Preprints, journal submissions and software archives have distinct statuses. The publications hub presents selected records with their licences and status; ORCID links the wider publication record. Review drafts are marked as drafts. Public software uses the licence stated by its project; some source repositories are private and are presented without a GitHub link. See project licensing for terms and commercial enquiries.
Investments, sponsorship and research partnerships
ANULUM welcomes investment conversations, research sponsorship, grants and partnerships that help advance its research and software. Support can fund a specific project, reproducible experiments, research infrastructure or the publication of open work. We are also open to equipment, compute and other in-kind contributions.
invest@anulum.li · Investment and patronage contact. Tell us about your interests and the project you would like to support. The scope, funding arrangement and any commercial terms are agreed individually.
What this site does not claim
No reactor page describes, approximates or validates a real machine unless a filed source prints the number. No preprint is called a peer-reviewed article. No readiness, yield, gain or breakeven statement is made by the device cores. Where a figure is an upper bound, a reconstruction or a value the source does not give back, the page says so in those words.
Working with the institute
Consulting covers AI training, custom software, security, in-house AI deployment and GPU clusters. Peer review, experimental collaboration and patronage go through the contact channels.
