Computer science projects are based on an algorithmic or structural problem in the use of computers. They may be focused on an application area, but the emphasis is on improving the basic algorithms used in that application area. The research may be described as pure basic or strategic basic research. Examples are algorithms used in bioinformatics, compilers for multi-cellular parallel computers, new artificial intelligence techniques, core mobile computing techniques, etc. Read More....

Information research is based on the use of an information resource, such as a database, the Internet, or digital repositories. The research is generally described as strategic basic, or may be applied research. The research may involve better use of the resource, adaptive search strategies, security, information forensics, distributed data systems, open access services, application of mobile technology to service delivery, etc. Read More....

Information systems research investigates the planning and management of information systems and technology in business and government, in communities and in society in general. A major focus is the conditions for creating maximum business or social value from information systems and technology investments. Read More....

The key in multi-disciplinary research is a close linkage with a non-ICT partner or topic with a real application problem, on which the project is based. The research is generally described as applied research, or may be strategic basic research. Examples include visualization of echoes from a multi-beam sonar, recognition of marine animals (such as fish, scallops) from video or camera images, providing pharmaceutical interaction advice, computing in education, etc. Read More....
