The objective of the NDRC is to design the technologies in terms of network engineering and service applications over the networks so that information network and social system become dependable partners for truly supporting idea, action, and cooperation of human beings. For this purpose, we cooperate with many researchers in various fields, the industrial-government-academic and the communities in different fields.
In the network engineering field, our research target is complex, diverse and large-scale networks. We have many research topics for effective control of the networks.
