Synopsis

The FMF cluster seeks to determine inherent limits of computation and communication, and to obtain optimal solutions within those limits. It addresses fundamental issues of information science and technology, both within computation and communications and at the interface between these and other disciplines. Thus the cluster is broadly concerned with problems of information processing that fall within the extremes of purely theoretical studies and applications within disciplines. Research and education projects sponsored by the cluster bring advanced capabilities from computer science, scientific computing, communication theory, signal processing theory, mathematics, and application areas to bear on fundamental problems throughout science and engineering.
