Center for Ubiquitous Connectivity (CUbiC) is a research center led by Columbia University and 10 other academic institutions.
The center is co-sponsored by the Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC), the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the commercial semiconductor industry, and the defense industrial base.
Our Goal
Address connectivity challenges by delivering seamless Edge-to-Cloud connectivity with transformational reductions in the global system energy consumption.
The center brings together an outstanding team of faculty with expertise in both wireless and photonics, spanning systems, architectures, circuits, and devices, organized along three compelling and complementary themes.
Over the next five years, CUbiC will strive to flatten the computation-communication gap, delivering seamless Edge-to-Cloud connectivity with transformation reductions in the global system energy consumption.
Our Research
CUBIC’s research strategy will be executed via three closely coordinated technical themes, each structured to facilitate application-driven cross-layer co-design from devices-to-systems:
