Research across connected domains

LUMEN-X

Low-power, Ultra-reliable, Multidomain and Emerging Networks eXploration

We develop communication architectures, protocols and intelligent control mechanisms for reliable, scalable, secure and energy-efficient networked systems.

Research Laboratory

From constrained IoT to multidomain and quantum networks.

Analytical modelling, protocol design, simulation, experimentation and intelligent adaptation under one coherent networking research programme.
