Into the MIST (Multi-functional Integrated System Technology): An NSF Industry-University Cooperative Research Center Webinar (2019)

Emerging trends in IoT involve integrating sensors, wireless, power, and computing at the MIST computing node towards low-latency, adaptive, and decentralized sensor networks to support the scale-up of smart, interconnected systems.

MIST’s unique research portfolio comprises numerous technical experts in a wide range of technology fields ranging from novel materials and processing technologies to devices/transducers, packaging, and multi-physics modeling.

This webinar will provide insight into MIST’s operations, funding, intellectual property, project selection and management.
