AboutAbout the lab
Research and education on embedded systems, led by industry–academia collaboration.
The Affiliated Center for Embedded Systems Research (NCES) is a center affiliated with the Graduate School of Informatics at Nagoya University, and conducts research and education on embedded systems technology through industry–academia collaboration.
An embedded system is a computer system that is built into various devices and machines and controls them.
Its activities fall into three areas: basic research aimed at practical use, prototype software development, and human resource development.
Its research projects include consortium-type joint research in which companies, universities, and other organizations take part.

*Illustrative imageSoftware Platform for Automated Driving
Together with companies, the center researches and develops the AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform, a next-generation software platform for automated driving and advanced safety systems. It also studies optimization of implementations and integration with the Classic Platform.
*Illustrative imageInformation and Communication Platform for Cooperative Autonomous Driving
The center makes the information and communication platform for cooperative autonomous driving (DM2.0) open source and uses it as a reference, developing mechanisms and applications to improve reliability and efficiency, and carrying out interoperability testing.
*Illustrative imageSecurity for In-Vehicle Systems
Through joint research, the center is investigating next-generation security technologies for vehicles. It aims to publish countermeasures that take advantage of the characteristics of in-vehicle control systems, centered on in-vehicle LANs.
*Illustrative imageCommunication Software for Spacecraft
The center studies methods for guaranteeing real-time performance in SpaceWire, which is beginning to be adopted as a next-generation communication network standard for spacecraft, and develops the software platform that supports them. This is joint research with JAXA.
