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

Basic project characteristics

The project offers professional potential for solving key topics such as the issue of energy, energy resources in connection with the necessary economic growth. In accordance with the policy of the European Community in the specifications for HORIZON 2020, the project is at the same time a direct challenge to the involvement of information and communication technologies in these processes.
