Research Centers
C2S2
C2S2 develops long-range design solutions for next-generation circuits, systems built from circuits, and the software that runs on them. C2S2 is a consortium of America's best research universities, funded jointly by the U.S. semiconductor industry MARCO Focus Center Research Program, and the U.S. Dept. of Defense.
CNXT
At the Center for Nano-Enabled Device and Energy Technologies (CNXT), a multidisciplinary team of Carnegie Mellon University researchers work to harness nanoscale research underway at both the College of Engineering and the Mellon College of Science. The center, which is housed at the Institute for Complex Engineered Systems (ICES), primarily focuses on nanoscale research that enables the design of innovative systems for sensing and on future energy generation and storage technologies. The secondary focus of the center is on advanced information and communication technologies.
CSSI
The Center for Silicon System Implementation (CSSI) at Carnegie Mellon is composed of 18 faculty from the Departments of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Computer Science and over 80 graduate students. The center has strong ties to both the national and international semiconductor, design and EDA industrial communities.
CyLab
Carnegie Mellon CyLab is a bold and visionary effort aimed at creating a public-private partnership to develop new technologies for measurable, available, secure, trustworthy, and sustainable computing and communications systems, and to educate individuals at all levels.
DSSC
The Data Storage Systems Center (DSSC) at Carnegie Mellon University is an interdisciplinary research and educational organization whose mission is to advance information storage technologies. Faculty and students from a wide range of disciplines at Carnegie Mellon are developing the fundamental understanding of the science and advanced engineering methods required for future generations of information storage systems.
GM-CM CRL
The GM-CM CRL is an interdisciplinary organization formed to foster close collaboration between General Motors and Carnegie Mellon researchers in a wide spectrum of technologies that are working toward making the automobile the next information technology platform in our society.
ITRI
Carnegie Mellon University and Taiwanese officials have established research and educational outreach programs with the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI). Research at the government-sponsored ITRI Lab@CMU focuses on circuit design and applications in communication, information technology, computer and consumer electronics, and multimedia.
MISCIC
The DARPA Center for Memory Intensive Self-Configuring Integrated Circuits (MISCIC) at Carnegie Mellon University addresses the most pressing challenges facing integrated systems — their cost, reliability, power consumption, and adaptability. Our experts will explore and refine integrated circuit reconfigurability (without sacrificing performance), low power operation, fault and damage tolerance, scalability, and manufacturing cost reduction at low volumes.
PDL
PDL is one of academia's premier storage systems research centers. The PDL addresses a broad spectrum of storage-related challenges, including secure storage, emerging technologies, disk characterization and modeling, efficient storage access, storage networking, and network-attached storage clusters.
