  Dependable Network Innovation Center

  Conducting research and development of highly dependable and highly functional telecommunication networks, and contributing to society through the fostering of human resources in this area.

  Toward an advanced IT society

  Today we live in an information technology society with highly advanced telecommunication network systems as seen in the rise of the Internet as a solid social infrastructure. Equally crucial as the technological development required for the construction of secure, safe, and highly functional telecommunication networks is to develop individuals who can adapt well to an advanced IT society.

  Taking over and building on the research achievements of the six key areas ("Theory," "Architecture," "Operation and Measurement," "Contents," "Application," and "Social Systems") produced by the predecessor of the current center, the Internet Research Center, and those from national and prefectural network-related projects, including the "StarBED Project," we will further develop technologies and human resources excepted by the advanced IT society.

  Conducting researches into the four areas related to an advanced IT society

  The center engages in researches into four areas: "Cyber Physical Systems," "New Generation Network Systems," "Cyber Security," and "Human Resources and Societal Strategies," conducted mainly by faculty members of School of Information Science in collaboration with the Researches Center for Advanced Computing Infrastructure and the Center for Graduate Education Initiative. We will also conduct intensive researches into new generation networks through a collaboration project with the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology.
