DSTC was established in 1992 as a centre of
excellence in distributed systems technologies and quickly gained an
international reputation as one of the most effective and
influential IT research organisations in Australia.
DSTC is
proudly vendor-independent and our
applied
research is primarily focused on providing technology services
to the Government, Defence and Healthcare sectors.
DSTC
supplies our
industry
partners and clients with new technologies, consulting services,
business development opportunities and professional IT advice. Their
association with the centre allows them to grow faster, service
customers more efficiently and break into new local and
international markets through exclusive services and product
offerings.
DSTC is supported by the Australian Government's
Cooperative Research Centres Program, and a dynamic consortium of
Government, Industry and University organisations.
Core
research & development is undertaken by a large network of
experienced
scientists, university academics and industry secondees.
Today, DSTC remains a unique national asset and continues
its work to improve the competitiveness of local business and foster
the growth of new Australian-based IT companies.
Our ideas,
our expertise and our core philosophy of applied, industry-specific
research ensures that our research program remains relevant and
responsive to Australian organisations looking to grow and improve
their business through the innovative application of new and
emerging technology.
