Welcome to NCLAB
Network Computing Laboratory (NCLAB) conducts research on a variety of networking and computing technologies, including edge computing, container orchestration, Internet of Things, and edge AI. To realize IoT Edge service infrastructure, we’ve recently focused on federated learning technologies combined with edge computing. We have extensive experience with open-source projects like Kubernetes, KubeEdge, Flower, and SUMO.
