Artificial Intelligence (AI) researchers now predict that computers will be able to perform tasks that were once considered the prerogative of human beings.

Research in networking and distributed systems focuses on enabling communication of and orchestrating coordination of a large number of computing nodes.

Mobile systems research focuses on the design and implementation of next-generation systems for mobile devices.  Research topics include mobile data management, wireless networks, sensing systems, static analysis and instrumentation for mobile apps, mobile image and video analytics, and secure and low-power hardware for mobile devices.
