Welcome to the ARL Information Science and Technology Collaboratory. The Collaboratory performs a mixture of work ranging from fundamental research on Discrete Event Systems, to simulations for performance testing of networks.

Collaboratory Mission

One can often define a field of study by its boundaries. A thermodynamicist would draw a boundary around a system such that the boundary is closed to energy, so that energy is conserved within. A sociologist would possibly draw a boundary closed to populations, so no external disturbances are introduced.

The collaboratory's purpose is to study systems with boundaries closed to information. We study how the information is generated, transmitted, stored, and how it is ultimately used.
