ACIS - Advanced Computing and Information Systems Laboratory

 

The mission of the Advanced Computing and Information Systems Laboratory (ACIS) is to conduct fundamental and applied research on all aspects of systems that integrate computing and information processing. The systems of interest range in scale from nanometers to the entire globe.

• Nanosystems research investigates biologically-inspired computing architectures that use novel nanoscale devices and self-assembled nanostructures.
• Microsystems research focuses on decoupled microarchitectures that are capable of computing in memory.
• Multiprocessor research considers hierarchical organizations of integrated processors and memory, or processors and storage.
• Internet-scale systems research studies next-generation information grids for scientific and engineering applications, access to specialized resources and document management.
• Global systems research addresses unique problems that arise in transnational digital government.

ACIS is home to faculty, students, researchers, technical staff and distinguished visitors and has extensive collaborations with other scientists and research organizations.

The ACIS laboratory gratefully acknowledges funding from the National Science Foundation, theBellSouth Foundation, the SRC, the IBM, Cisco, Critical Software,Cyberguard, and VMware.
