About ITE’s research
At the School of Information Technology (ITE), research is conducted within aware intelligent systems, smart electronic systems, cyber physical systems and digital service innovation. These four areas constitute the four technology areas of ITE.
The school's researchers are part of the following research programmes
LeaDS – Learning in a Digitalised Society
M4HP – Movement for Health and Performance
REBEL: Re-Imagining Future Smart Living – Beyond the Living Lab
Research goal
The research goal within ITE is to provide and develop knowledge (solutions, theories, methods, tools) that are relevant for the creation of innovative IT-based products and services – from enabling technologies, via system solutions and applications, to value-creating IT utilisation. With this, we intend to contribute to strengthening the competitiveness of Swedish industry.
Research leader at the School of Information Technology is Slawomir Nowaczyk.
Technology areas, research centres and profile
Technology areas
Research at ITE is conducted within four technology areas:
- Digital Service Innovation
- Aware Intelligent Systems
- Smart Electronic Systems
- System of Cyber Physical Systems
The competence in these technology areas include signals and systems, informatics, mathematics, computer science and engineering, forensics, electronics and physics. These competences form the research at ITE.
Research Center, CAISR
Center for Applied Intelligent Systems Research (CAISR), is a long-term research program on intelligent systems established by Halmstad University. The program is funded by the University and the Knowledge Foundation with support from Swedish Industry.

Research in collaboration
Through our joint competences we can be an attractive partner and deal with projects where the whole range is treated, from enabling technologies – like low-power technologies and semiconductor sensors – to value-adding IT use, considering user aspects. In between, system and application aspects are treated, that is intelligent algorithms, application-specific computer architectures and efficient interconnection technologies.
Our strategy is to focus on a limited number of application areas in which we get recognised by industry and society as a key player and natural cooperation partner. Currently, the selected application areas are: health technology, traffic and transport systems, process industry, high-performance signal processing applications, experience industry, together with the (non-application) area of ground breaking electronics.
- ITE shall be an internationally recognised research environment with advanced and postgraduate education.
- ITE shall be characterised by well-developed research collaborations with the business sector and the public sector.
- ITE should be a leading environment within embedded and intelligent systems in Europe.
