Societal-Scale Information System (SIS) Information Utility

– Planetary-scale/non-stop; secure, reliable, high-performance access, even when overloaded, down, disconnected, under repair, under attack

Smart System– Learns usage/adapts functions & interfaces

Managing Diversity– Component plug-and-play; integrate sensors /

actuators, hand-held appliances, workstations, building-sized cluster supercomputers

Always Connected– Short-range wireless nets to high-bandwidth,

high-latency long-haul optical backbones

Industrial Support“I believe we are now entering the Renaissance phase of the Information Age, where creativity and ideas are the new currency, and invention is a primary virtue, where technology truly has the power to transform lives, not just businesses, where technology can help us solve fundamental problems.”

Carly Fiorina, CEO, Hewlett Packard Corporation

CITRIS Principles for Investigators and Sponsors

Bottom-up Institute: portfolio of evolving multi-investigator, inter-disciplinary, and/or intercampus Collaborative Research Projects: Core and Affiliated

Faculty affiliation through CITRIS CRPs Subsidized access to research

infrastructure & opportunity “seed” funds Industrial sponsors, in consultation with

Director, direct funding to specific projects Industrial sponsors retain relationships

with faculty investigators and project teams

Open intellectual property framework

Summary and Conclusions

An Institute– Long-lived, evolving mix of projects – Initial focus is Societal-Scale Information Systems

Emphasizes collaborative research/education– Industry partnership—helps shape Institute agenda,

proven models of tech transfer– Drive lifelong learning thru UC Merced and beyond

Technology in Context: societal problems focus and integrate the research Technology spin-offs plus key architectural &

technical insights
