The Institute for Computer Science and Control (in short SZTAKI, Hungarian: Számítástechnikai és Automatizálási Kutatóintézet) is a Hungarian research institute in Budapest, founded in 1964. [1]

Scope

Its primary tasks include basic and application-oriented research in an interdisciplinary setting in the fields of engineering, computer science, information technology, intelligent systems as well as process control, multimedia and wide area networking. [2] Further tasks of SZTAKI include training, contract-based target research, development and expert support for domestic and foreign industrial, governmental and other partners. [3] [4] The institute also operates a public advice service on knowledge-transfer of up-to-date research results and state-of-the-art technology to university students. [5] SZTAKI has wide external relationships and different groups within the institute work on projects for well-known international and Hungarian companies and the number of European Union projects is also impressing. Its staff has more than 300 full-time employees.
