What’s going on at CTF? How can research conducted at CTF make a difference and contribute to sustainable societal development? Read about this, and much more in our annual report.
The year 2019 was an eventful year marked by new research initiatives, collaboration and dissemination of knowledge.
Digital services can make physical places more attractive and competitive. But, to digitalize just because it is possible might have an opposite effect.

You have probably noticed that an online video clip playing on your mobile phone is interrupted when you leave your house and the Wifi network. The mobile phone connects to 4G, and the video clip resumes. One advantage of multipath networks, which will be common in the future, is that your mobile phone will switch between different networks without you noticing it.

Many people are worried, of course, about health aspects and about the societal consequences that the measures taken will have.
New applications such as autonomous cars, robot surgery, and the next generation automation and manufacturing technologies demand ever more flexibility and capacity in computer networks.

The Ingoskog project, about forest based green transition , would have had its closing conference in May. However, due to the spread of the corona virus, the conference is moved forward.
"We hope to be able to conduct the conference on 18-19 August and will decide this in mid-May. Then we will also see what forms the conference should have, says project manager Margareta Dahlström. The registration to the Conference will also reopen during May .
