In the beginning of CCST’s development in 1978, the founder of the ZJU CS department set the initial key research area of ZJU CCST as Artificial Intelligence and Computer Graphics, two of the pioneering research areas in China, and has made ample research achievements. With over 40 years of concerted effort, CCST has developed into a research institution with comprehensive research capabilities and significant world academic influence. It now compresses 5 major national-level research platforms (comprising 3 State Key Laboratories and 2 research centers), and conducts extensive research ranging from artificial and hybrid intelligence to service computing, mixed reality, cyberspace security, and so on.
