Computer architecture is a critical area of computing: it underpins today’s technologies and drives the next generation of computing systems. We’re proud of our research and innovation in this area and recently, the National Semiconductor Strategy underlined how vital such work is, showing that the UK is currently a leader in computer architecture. As this shows, we need to invest in developing the research leaders of tomorrow. That's why we're setting up a new Computer Architecture Research Centre here - as our Head of Department, Prof Alastair Beresford, explains here as he gives an overview of Computer Architecture research here in the Department of Computer Science and Technology from its earliest beginnings to the work we are doing today and our plans for the future.
