ENGINE Center Technologie informacyjne i telekomunikacyjne (ICT)
Activity of the ENGINE Centre involves many institutions, including foreign institutions collaborating within the ENGINE project (http://engine.pwr.edu.pl), Polish scientific institutions and companies. A variety of affiliates of the ENGINE Centre results in a broad spectrum of competencies and skills of the Centre, in the research, development and commercialization of research results areas.
Centre of Innovative Information Technologies ENGINE focuses its research and development activity in the area of the so-called network intelligence, that is intelligent techniques, methods and models, and applications, as presented in Fig. 1.
To make smart decisions on compound practical tasks, the new and innovative solutions that use effective computing systems and flexible, non-standard method of data acquisition and user communication, are needed. The network intelligence groups versatile methods of effective computing using distributed computer network environment, intelligent human-computer interaction (HCI) and smart decision making. Smart decisions are especially achieved by means of intelligent processing and analysis, and by discovering associations and connections within networked, complex, distributed and dynamic data sets and streams.
