About the DAI-Labor
The DAI-Labor and the chair "Agent technologies in business applications and telecommunication" at the Technische Universität Berlin, headed by Prof. Dr. Dr. hc Sahin Albayrak, perform research and development in order to provide solutions for a new generation of systems and services – "smart services and smart systems".
Research at the DAI-Labor is done in competence centers, which address different areas, ranging from investigation of the foundations of distributed systems and machine learning, to enhancing security in networks and interactive systems. The scientific grounding and results of the competence centers are used to develop system solutions in different application centers. The application centers focus on the development of intelligent services and systems to deal with current and future challenges of society. State-of-the-art testbeds allow validating and demonstrating these services in realistic scenarios. Close cooperation with industry partners ensures an approach that is both practical and solution oriented. All of this allows the DAI-Labor to develop technologies within a university environment that meets even the highest industry standards.
