Data science;
-
Environmental modelling
-
Technical, environmental and ethical reliability of software;
-
Quantum computing
Strategic lines of development:
- Active participation by the centre in the integrated university project conducted by the establishments on the site;
- Move from the Montbonnot site to the Saint Martin d’Hères university campus;

- Creation of the Inria centre of the Target University (University of Lyon);
- Reinforcement of the interdisciplinary project teams, in particular those based on interactions between digital sciences, biology and health, or with all the disciplines involved with the development of urban intelligence, through two areas:
- modelling in biology and health;
- distributed and embedded computing.
