International Centre of Excellence for Research of Intelligent and Secure InformationCommunication Technologies and Systems

Centre of Excellence (CE) is a research and development organization, which is involved in international science and technology cooperation with added value for the European Research Area. The results of its research and development are intended for commercial and social practice in Slovak Republic and are reflected in the training of new researchers.

CE has been created for the management and operation of the top shared research center, where there is direct interaction between the academic and business sector in the field of energetics, information and communications technologies and systems, with the emphasis on technology transfer and intellectual property protection.

General information about centre

The strategic goals of Centre of Excellence (CE) focus mainly on increasing quality of research institutes and excellent research in Slovakia, the realization of international research cooperation and the development of links between companies and research institutes in the field of research for the smart and secure information and communication systems.

CE focuses its activities on managing their own organizational structures with a focus on research areas and the sustainability of Centre of excellence. CE searches for new opportunities for progress and development of the research activity in the fields of energy and information and communication systems.

Essential part of research and development is divided into three cross-cutting themes:

  • Energy and Smart grids
  • Security and cryptography
  • Big data

The results of their project activities are presented for specialists, commercial partners, and also a wide general public, thus encouraging awareness in this area.
