Research Labs
 |
The Computer Networks, Information and Cryptography Laboratory is dedicated to performing fundamental research in the conception and implementations of computer networks and related applications. The Laboratory is supported, in part, by funding from federal and private sources. The main problems being researched include implicit security models, social networks, key distribution protocols, random sequences, tacit knowledge, quantum information and cryptography.
The CNIC Lab and CREC have formed an alliance to use CREC’s MySource as a framework in the design of a new kind of a social computing network that not only brings people but it provides an outlet for businesses and schools to create communities that parallel the real ones and, most importantly, it provides information and choices to customers to optimize their energy use in the home or in the business. Originally named Pulling Islands of Data into Working Harmony, this concept was awarded the national Cooperative Innovators Award for the year 2007. |
| Financial engineering is a multidisciplinary field that involves different financial aspects such as financial theory, the methods of financing, mathematical tools, computation and the practice of programming to achieve the desired end results. The financial engineering methodologies apply engineering methodologies, social theories and quantitative methods to finance. It is normally used in the stock market, securities, banking, and financial management and consulting industries, or as quantitative analysts in corporate treasury and finance departments of general manufacturing and service firms. Financial Engineering Research Lab is basically concerned and working on three different approaches to forecast stock market. |
