Advanced Computing for Innovation (AComIn)

The general objective is to strengthen the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences Institute of Information and Communication Technologies (IICT) research and innovation capacity by increasing the knowledge and skills of IICT researchers in emerging areas as well as by purchasing modern research infrastructure. AComIn should help the institute to successfully accomplish its strategic mission: by 2016, i.e. 5 years after its creation, IICT has to become a leading RTD Centre in Eastern Europe, providing facilities and working conditions comparable to the average standards of the EU Centres of Excellence in ICT. The institute will support the sustainable regional and national growth and employment by providing RTD results to advanced industrial organisations; it will be a focal point of high-quality research training in South-East Europe.
