Research in the Department is organised into the following research groups.
Simulation and Visualization Research Group
This group pursues basic research into visualization, virtual environments, haptics, physical based modelling, simulation, image registration, image and sensor technology, etc. Together these capabilities allow the group to provide innovative solutions to industrial and healthcare problems.

Distributed Reliable Intelligent Systems (DRIS)
The group performs high quality, internationally recognised research in the area of distributed, reliable and intelligent control and cognitive systems, with a focus on safety-critical embedded and distributed information systems. We address a number of issues arising in the development and assessment of such systems by developing novel techniques and tools that aim to improve the quality and dependability of systems via advanced safety and reliability analysis, multi-criteria design optimisation, improved testing, enhanced security and assurance of data integrity. Our work in these areas is underpinned by basic and applied research in areas of system and software engineering (system and failure modelling, algorithms for safety and reliability analysis, automated testing) (DRIS Home)
