Research Centers

The Department of Electrical and Information Technology has a long tradition in hosting various types of research centers and research programs. Some of them are listed below. (Click on the titles to access their web sites.)

	Excellence Center at Linköping - Lund in Information Technology ELLIIT is a network organization for Information and Communication Technology (ICT) research at Linköping, Lund, Halmstad and Blekinge, which has been created to support and enhance an internationally acknowledged research environment in these areas. The objective is scientific excellence in combination with industrial relevance and impact. It is organized within the Swedish government's strategic research support initiative.
	SSF Competence Center for High Speed Wireless Communication This SSF competence center is hosted by the department, with additional participation from the Department of Physics, Lund University, and the Department of Signals and Systems, Chalmers University of Technology. As the name indicates, the research area of the center is high speed wireless communication.
	Lund Center for Control of Complex Engineering Systems LCCC is a Linneaus environment at Lund University funded by the Swedish Research Council since 2008. The ten principal investigators are from the Department of Automatic Control and the Department of Electrical and Information Technology. Our vision is to make fundamental contributions to a general theory and methodology for design and operation of complex systems. This includes scalable methods and tools for modeling, analysis and control synthesis, as well as reliable implementations using networked embedded systems.
	Neuronano Research Center The NRC is an interdisciplinary research and innovation center combining neuroscience in vivo and in vitro, nano- and microtechnology, and organic chemistry in the development of a new generation of neural interfaces for communication with the nervous system in basic research and clinical applications.
	VINNOVA Industrial Excellence Center - System Design on Silicon The vision of the center is to be a world class research facility for the development of system solutions on silicon for wireless communication devices that ensure the competitiveness of the participating companies and Swedish industry. By combining a number of strong research groups, focusing both on implementation and more theoretical perspectives, with world-leading industrial companies, the center will develop interdisciplinary solutions that significantly enhance state-of-the-art in the area.
