Prof Xiaodong Liu and his Intelligence-Driven IoT and Smart Systems Research Group have won a number of grants from HE, H2020, FP7 and UK Research Councils.
We are an international leading research group in IoT, pervasive systems, Cyber-Physical Systems, generative AI and intelligence-driven software engineering. Edinburgh Napier University is one of the largest higher education institutions in the UK with over 20,000 students from 109 countries. The research in its School of Computing, Engineering and Built Environment (SCEBE) is recognised as world or international leading in UK’s Research Assessment (REF2021 and REF2014). SCEBE has significant collaborations on pervasive computing (IoT), AI, and data science. It helps to explore not just the technology but how people interact with it and how it impacts on society. SCEBE has led and participated in many projects with EU (including MSCA PF and MSCA DN), UK research councils, international funders and clients across all industry sectors. SCEBE has registered dozens of patents and spun out 10+ companies. It has a distinguished record in training researchers: a vibrant PhD programme, a number of CPD and Postdoc training programmes.
