The Research Centre focuses on cross-layer reliability and self-health awareness technology for tomorrow's complex intelligent autonomous systems and IoT edge devices in Estonia and EU. The team studies advanced cyber-physical systems characterized by their heterogeneity and the emerging computing architectures employing AI-based autonomy. The centre generates knowledge to equip engineers with design-phase solutions and in-field instruments for industry-scale systems to facilitate system’s crashless operation.
