Swarm Research

Our research is committed to advancing the state of the art in cyber-physical systems (CPS) foundations and applications in the Internet of things (IoT).

Swarm Lab 2.0 Vision

The University of California at Berkeley, and particularly the Swarm Lab Research Centers, is committed to advancing the state of the art in cyber-physical systems (CPS) foundations and applications in the Internet of Things (IoT). Our mission includes designing and developing new methodologies, software, and hardware, and educating the next generation of engineers.

The work is organized around the following Swarm Lab centers & initiatives:

  • Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems Center (iCyPhy) & Distributed Dynamic Systems (DDS)
  • The Human Intranet (HI)
