Computer Science and Automation

Computer science is the science of automated processing of information. It has become more and more complex and the applied processes increasingly varied. This research topic covers the fields of automatic processing of information via the execution of computer programs by machines (embedded systems, computers, robots, etc.)

Automation deals with the modeling, analysis, identification and control of dynamic systems.

At Centrale Nantes, these research themes are dealt with by several research groups ranging from high performance computing to transport applications to human modeling and software development.
