AboutAbout the lab
Exploring embedded systems and high-speed computing
The Edge Computing Lab studies computer science with a focus on hardware.
The lab is interested in developing embedded systems into technologies that can be used in society, as well as in mechanisms for next-generation high-speed computing and high-speed communication.
It is also interested in IoT and mobile applications, and pays particular attention to converging technologies in information science that target people.
Key terms
- Hardware
- The physical part of a computer. It refers to the circuits and devices themselves, and is the counterpart of software, which consists of programs.
- Embedded systems
- Computer systems built into devices such as home appliances and machines, which control the fixed functions of those devices.
- IoT
- A mechanism in which various devices in our surroundings are connected to the internet and exchange information.
