Laboratoire de l'Informatique du Parallélisme

General Presentation of the LIP

The Computer Science Lab gathers 47 permanent faculties and researchers, with 48 PhD students, and 8 scientists working on temporary positions of various projects. Research is developped on several key topics of the computer science with the help of an administrative and technical staff of 5 engineers and 5 assisting people.
