We believe R&D is a key component of our innovative services and solutions. This helps us create higher value added software products and services on which our future depends on.We provide a unique flexible environment for exploring the applications of basic research. Our intention in this area is to bring out lab ideas into viable commercial products which can simplify the lives of the user community at affordable cost.

Our current applied research areas are:

•     Mobile Computing
•     RFID
•     Bio-Informatics
•     Pervasive Computing

Mobile Computing

Our goal in this area is to design and develop mobile application software for different kinds of mobile devices. We are architecting an environment to enable new stream of products and services to market quickly and cost-effectively. Some of our focused areas of 'applied mobile computing research' are:

•     Banking
•     Utilities
•     Real Estate
•     Insurance

RFID

With the emergence of increasingly affordable RF tags and RFID readers, RFID technologies have now made their way into the end-user applcations in different industries. A successful RFID-based solution needs to focus on how these systems designed not only for the sake of efficiency and cost but also to safeguard consumers' privacy and instill their trust in the technology.

•     Healthcare
•     Retail
•     Manufacturing

Bio-Informatics

Bioinformatics is the fusion of computing, mathematics, and biology to organize, manage and analyze the data. The effective deployment of bioinformatics requires the user to have a reasonable idea of the questions that he wants answers to. Then for each such question, bioinformatics can be used to first organize the relevant data and then to analyse these data to make predictions or to draw conclusions.

We help our customers create methods and tools to manage data and discover knowledge. Some of our focused area are:

•     Data Compression
•     Data Mining and KDD
•     WebServices for data sets
•     Tools for medical data analysis

Pervasive Computing

Pervasive computing applications allow users to access information from anywhere while traveling and using variety of devices. Ubiquitous computing and pervasive computing are emerging areas that bring together the elements of distributed systems, mobile computing, embedded systems and many other fields. As the processors are becoming small and inexpensive, everyday objects will be infused with computational power to make web service a reality.

While this approach would provide a valuable service for the end customer, the service provider, and the content provider, it is important to have an architectural framework which is simple, scalable, flexible and interoperable

Some of our focused areas are:

•     RFID and SmartCards
•     Pervasive Computing infrastructure
•     Pervasive Computing Architecture
•     Security
•     Wireless and Mobile Computing
