Since inception the Hitachi Sophia-Antipolis
Laboratory was sited within CICA. However, in August 2002
the Laboratory moved to new larger premises at:
Hitachi Sophia-Antipolis Laboratory
Immeuble Le Thélème
1503, route des Dolines
06560 Valbonne Sophia Antipolis
FRANCE
Tel. No. +33 (0)4 89 87 41 00
Fax No. +33 (0)4 89 87 41 99
The Laboratory was opened at the beginning of October 2000,
and evolved due to four years close collaborative work with
Institut Eurecom and Research in response to the globalisation
of networks, skills and economies.
Here, our research team is pursuing mobile computing and
communications in partnership with EURECOM and INRIA (The
French National Institute for Research in Computer Science
and Control). The collaboration between Hitachi and EURECOM/INRIA
is truly an international partnership and the laboratory
intends to work together with not only government organisations
but with private enterprises within the region, to produce
quality developments within these fields.
Further to this, Hitachi is proud of the symposiums that
it has held since 1997, which have focussed on mobile technologies
and related topics. Speakers from across the telecommunications
sector have been involved in the symposiums, and each year
the attendance grows as the race to find the best solution
to mobile technologies increases. We are confident that
with our growing knowledge and continued partnerships with
Eurecom and INRIA will help us to produce cutting edge telecommunications
developments for the future. While our continued pursuit
of excellence will maintain Hitachi's reputation as world
leaders in research and development fields. |
