Thesis
Funding requirements | We invest in the following areas: • Data and Analytics: We look for data ingest technologies, developer tooling for AI and ML, understandable AI systems, analytic workflow tools, analytics to control automated processes, and decision analytics. Data need to be helpful in various environments in a way that addresses a wide range of latency concerns. As a result, we seek technologies that adapt analytic workflows to accommodate processing constraints and support the development of just-in-time, good-enough analytical strategies. • Cybersecurity: We look for end-point security systems, zero trust systems, novel access control and isolation mechanisms, application security, code analysis, and software-defined perimeters. Data protection deserves special attention to address security and privacy concerns and look for novel ways to protect data in motion and at rest. • Computing: We look for technologies that enable high-performance computing from commodity resources, allow distributed and edge computing, support stream processing, and enable specialized processors. We also believe that compute requirements ebb and flow, so look for technologies that rapidly provision and configure compute resources. • Networking: We look for technologies that heighten network adaptivity and enable computation distribution. This includes software-defined networking, edge networks, and 5G technologies. Adaptive networks need secure network controls, so look for technologies that support policy-driven networking and secure network configuration. |
