The Research Group Communication Technologies aims at the investigation of future communication networks and future applications offered through these networks.

The chair focuses on the following research topics:

• algorithms and mechanisms to design and operate communication networks 
• network architectures and protocols for future communication technologies
• performance evaluation of networked and distributed systems
• network security
• wireless and cellular networks

Our vision is that networked systems should become self-* (i.e., self-optimizing, self-repairing, self-configuring). 

Accordingly, we are currently particularly interested in automated and data-driven approaches to design, optimize, and verify networked systems.
