The Department of applied research in information and communication technology<\/em>, DART.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The department of applied research in information technology conducts contract research in selected computer science areas for both industry and the public sector, ensuring financial stability and a high scientific standard. We engage in research and collaboration projects in Norway and the EU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The department has three overarching research areas: Digital security, digital inclusion, and digital transformation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Former research areas include smart information systems, smart sensors, e-learning, and formal systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital security<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We have more than 20 years of experience in applied research and industrial development of digital security. We have developed several methods and tools that help system owners identify, design, operate and evaluate cost-effective security technologies. We offer a range of services including training, consulting, development, and analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital inclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Universal design and usability are integral to all our projects. We are particularly interested in developing solutions that work well across devices, situations, and that cater to diverse user groups. Our target groups are often the elderly and people with varying conditions, abilities and needs, and our work encompasses sensory, motor, linguistic and cognitive aspects. Our expertise in this area is unique in Norway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital transformation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We research technologies and methods that support the digital transformation of products and services. By digital transformation, we mean fundamental changes to the ways that organisations work and what services they offer. These changes affect the entire organisation, including employees, processes, technology, and user experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\t
