Why near Paris?

• Strong connection with

5
An ambition

• Mastering software intensive systems
• Along the entire spectrum
• Systems on Chip (SoC)
• Embedded systems
• Interactive cognitive systems
• Web information systems
• Sensors signal processing systems
• Network communication systems
• Robots
• High performance computing

6
Sustained by many

• About 1200 researchers in 2006
• 1800 expected in 2010
• RTRA six founders partners (ENS-Cachan, ECP,
  UVSQ)

7
Interested, e.g., in

• Advanced interfaces with the outside world
  (sensors, actuators) and users (voice control,
  haptic interfaces , visualization)
• Modeling/simulation to design, forecast
  performance, check reliability, control
• Software and hardware design theoretical
  foundations, dealing with reliability and
  robustness
• Large-scale data bases
• Harnessing available computing power (grids,
  super computers)

8
Example of common topics 1

• Software and its relations with hardware
  embedded systems, microsystems, intensive
  computing
• Hybrid and multitechnology systems modeling,
  estimation, control, integration, simulation,
  architectures, SoC
• Interactions, visualization and virtual reality
  natural and intuitive interfaces between man and
  computer in real and virtual environments,
  displaying large amounts of data

9
Example of common topics 2

• Nondestructive control sensors, associated
  signal and image processing (inverse problems,
  measure improvement, etc.), software sensors
• Dynamical and mobile networks radio networks (ad
  hoc networks, sensor networks), routing,
  dimensioning, quality of service, safety. Unique
  spectrum of competences from antennas to services
  in dynamic networks of whatever nature

10
Shared interest in

• Learning (data based modeling, data mining, etc.)
  with a large variety of techniques and
  applications
• Uncertainty how to characterize, manage or
  minimize it how to design efficiently in
  uncertain environments how to build up
  approximate methods and probabilistic algorithms
• Bioinformatics, (biologists, mathematicians,
  computer control scientists)
