The expertise and experience of SCCH in industrial research and development ideally complements our excellence in basic research in the field of data driven modelling and cooperative networked systems. In the years to come, we expect an even closer cooperation and cross-fertilization between SCCH and our institute. Therefore, we would like to continue our partnership with SCCH in the realm of the COMET program for the period 2019-2022, in which we expect a close cooperation and cross-fertilization between SCCH and our institute.
