ISI aims to create breakthrough technologies that enable groups of people, software and hardware to analyze situations jointly and take coordinated action. Our efforts include networks, shared-resource grids, security technologies,and tools and environments that directly support their users-- in situations that involve considerable scale, complexity, unreliability and uncertainty.

Research focuses on:

• Networking principles, architectures and protocols
• Grid and distributed workflow
• Information security strategies, technologies and infrastructure
• Large-scale simulation and information environments
• Advanced resource management and decision support

Among our current projects:

• Grid computing:  Southern California Earthquake Center research coalition
• Testbeds:  DETER experimental cyber-security testing network
• Large-scale simulations:  Joint Experimentation on Scalable Parallel Processors for Joint Forces Command; Risk Analysis Workbench integrated analysis environment
• Sensor networking:  ISI Laboratory for Embedded Networked Sensor Experimentation satellite, ecological, undersea seismic and other networks
