HRL Laboratories, LLC. : Laboratories : Information & Systems Sciences

Algorithms
HRL focuses on the development of innovative technologies that enable smart networks and systems to reason and adapt to changes in their environments, goals, or their own capabilities. We are developing pioneering technology in video image exploitation, image processing, data and information fusion, data mining, diagnostics and prognostics. Our focus is the development of revolutionary technology to enable smart networks and systems control that can be taught, can learn from experience to improve their performance, and can intuitively interact with their users.

Communications & Networking
Current wireless networking architectures for both commercial and military data communications applications are quickly approaching their performance limits. HRL is working on technologies in the areas of mobile adhoc network (MANET) protocol design, intra-and inter-vehicles wireless communication, and MANET optimization and control to meet the demands of new wireless applications that require ever increasing bandwidth, performance, and adaptability. Recent efforts have focused on three areas: Intra-system networks, energy efficient wireless network architectures, and cognitive radios.
