  1. Presentation to Socware VisitorsSocware Research and Education at KTH Dr. Li-Rong Zheng Laboratory of Electronics and Computer Systems Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) SE-164 40 Kista-Stockholm Sweden E-mail: lrzheng@imit.kth.se URL: http://www.imit.kth.se/~lrzheng

  2. This is KTH The Royal Institute of Technology (Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan), KTH, was founded in 1827, and is the largest of Sweden’s universities of technology. Since 1917 KTH has been housed in central Stockholm in beautiful buildings which today have historical monument status, and associated colleges etc. are also found in various places in the Stockholm surroundings – Haninge, Kista, Södertälje. Responsible for one-third of Sweden’s capacity for engineering studies and technical research at post-secondary level. Over 11,000 undergraduate students, 1,500 active postgraduate students and a staff of 3,100 people. KTH conducts top-notch education and research of a broad spectrum – from natural science to all branches of technology, including architecture, industrial economics, urban planning, work science and environmental technology. Studies at KTH can lead to a number of degrees – Architect, Master or Bachelor of Science, or Doctor/ licentiate in either science or philosophy. Continuing education is also an important part of our activities.

  3. KISTA SCIENCE PARK is number two in the world science cities in 2000 • In July 2000 Wired Magazine presented its latest ranking concerning global science parks which placed Kista Science Park on second place together with Boston and Israel. Kista Science Park is a strong contender for the title of being the European version of Silicon Valley. • Today KISTA SCIENCE PARK nourishes some 700 companies, 28 000 employeés and 3 500 students at university level.

  4. The IT University in Kista - A "virtual" university The IT University is the common name for all academic activities in Kista / Stockholm. It is a joint venture between KTH (the Royal Institute for Technology) and Stockholm University as partners. Karolinska Institutet (the medical university) becomes partner in the venture from fall 2001. Central Function: Vice-President for Academic Affairs Prof. Gunnar LandgrenDean Prof. Hannu TenhunenVice-Dean Prof. Björn Pehrson Departments Department of Microelectronics and Information Technology (IMIT) Department for System and Computer Science (DSV) Department of Applied Information Technology Centers KTH Online KTH Semiconductor Laboratory (Central Clean Room) Swedish Center for Internet Technology KTH Center for Wireless Systems Figures from 1999.
