Introduction

 The Research Center for Information Technology Innovation (CITI) was formally established in February 2007. CITI will work closely with the Institute of Information Science, and Computing Centre of Academia Sinica. Through collaborative research or partnership efforts CITI will also interact with other units in Academia Sinica, as well as universities and companies in the service sector, to collectively make contributions of significant impact to society.

 The mission of the Center is to enable and support the transition of emerging information technologies to help elevate and accelerate economic development and social advancements of today’s knowledge-based economy. The emphasis is on information technological infrastructures, technology-based services and human resources with innovation that are critical for the national socio-economic growth, advancement, and overall competitiveness. Service engineers and information technologists at CITI will help researchers at the Academia Sinica and other research institutions translate their findings into prototype systems, on which to perform testing, evaluation and their promotion, and hopefully they will lead to technology transfer into new applications. Facing the challenges of Globalization and of today’s knowledge-based economy, the above work is getting more and more important to build the version of the innovative technology service industry. Many new ideas or breakthroughs on information technology are as a result of the experiences of developing and implementing interdisciplinary systems. Through the execution of that work, CITI could make good use of the professionalism of information technology and R & D innovation to assist the commercial sector, to promote the public-private collaboration, and elevate the value of research.
