A research and teaching laboratory, in which works are carried out referring to issues related to the analysis of the phenomena occurring in computer systems and networks, in particular in the context of complex systems. The aim of this work is to learn and understand the mechanisms that affect the functioning of IT systems and networks in relation to their efficiency and reliability. Detailed research is subjected to, among others physical and logical network structures in terms of performance, functionality and security analysis. In addition, it is possible to conduct research on high-capacity transmission infrastructure and virtualization techniques in the laboratory. Equipped with high-performance computing servers and the necessary network infrastructure, it provides a high-quality test environment in the work on motion control and analysis, virtualization, performance of database environments and security and new services on the network.
The laboratory is equipped with the necessary communication infrastructure as well as computer systems and network devices. A wide range of available equipment allows for the implementation of research works, didactic classes as well as work carried out in cooperation with the industry.
Selected issues implemented in the laboratory.
- modeling and statistical analysis of computer systems and networks;
