Technology, industry and administration

Technology, industry and administration is one of the research areas at the SAMBA department of the Norwegian Computing Center (NR). Our competence covers a wide range of areas including network modelling, optimal delivery/logistics, optimal steering of industry processes, reliability analysis and cost surveys.

Our core competence is in statistical methodology and modeling, with subsidiary competence in computing, mathematics and selected applications. When we are faced with a certain applied problem, the challenge is often to find the correct statistical formulation and method to the problem of interest. Typically, in close cooperation with our clients we first "translate" the problem into a statistical model. Then we apply some existing statistical method or develop a new one, to find a solution. Finally, we "translate" the answer back to the terminology of the application in question.

In addition to solving problems using applied statistics, we also do research within general statistical methodology. At the moment these activities are mainly organised through basic funding and Statistics for Innovation.
