ICL’s fundamental strength is Information Science, a discipline that investigates the properties and behavior of information, the forces governing the flow of information, and the means of processing information for optimum accessibility and usability. ICL has broad and deep capabilities across the data science hierarchy of needs and our key areas of research focus on systems that adapt to their operational environment, as well as scalable enterprise system modernization and transformation. Core research areas include (alphabetically): advanced computing systems, artificial intelligence and machine learning, communications, data analytics, decision support systems, electronic warfare, embedded software, enterprise applications, 5G/FutureG, health analytics and informatics, information science, interoperable data architectures, the intersection of cognitive performance and artificial intelligence, radio frequency (RF) propagation modeling, socio-technical systems, software-defined RF systems, spectrum analytics, STEM education, and trusted systems. ICL conducts research that solves complex problems for range of domains, including national security, health, intelligence, law enforcement and justice and economic impact for the state of Georgia.
