Our Research
DISI is the beating heart of computer science research, where new ideas, methods and tools are conceived and developed.
The development of computer science disciplines, their pervasiveness and growing social impact: the department’s research activities encompass all disciplinary areas of modern computer science and its applications, from the perspective of both basic and applied research. The need to respond to numerous and urgent multidisciplinary challenges has driven DISI, since its foundation, to promote multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research.
Thanks to highly innovative projects from a scientific and technological perspective, as well as those carried out in collaboration with industry, DISI is consolidating its role as a leading centre at national and international level, whilst promoting the growth of the local ecosystem.
The research objectives set out in the Departmental Strategic Plan are supported by a planning framework based on progressive tasks that are monitored annually.
