About IBM Research

IBM's worldwide research labs work in all areas of information technology, from physics and cognitive science to leading-edge application research. We invent innovative materials and structures and use them to create exciting machine designs and architectures. We create tools and technologies that will enable the continued evolution of computing and computing services over the network. IBM's work across many disciplines is often done in concert with our colleagues in academic and government research centers, as well as "in the marketplace" with customers who provide us with challenging research problems.

IBM Research focuses on being vital to IBM's future success. We strive to balance between projects with an immediate impact and investments in innovative technologies. IBM's investments are aimed at ensuring that IBM has the leadership required to be customers' long-term technology partner.
