Researchers in Information and Computing Sciences employ new technologies to solve client problems through contract research, technology licensing, and venture creation. Our staff members collaborate within SRI, and also with diverse university and industry partners.

The computer mouse and computerized banking had their origins in SRI research over the past 65-plus years. SRI also played a substantial role in ARPANET history, and in the origins of Siri technology. Our contributions to scientific literature surpass 100 research papers a year. SRI has fueled advances in personal computing and produced world-changing innovations for a wide range of government and industrial clients.
