Economic development by the Indiana University Pervasive Technology Institute, Pervasive Technology Labs, and the Research Technologies Division of University Information Technology Services September 1999 – June 2011: a public report

Abstract

In September of 1999 the Lilly Endowment awarded IU a major grant to fund the Indiana Pervasive Computing Research Initiative (IPCRES). From IPCRES grew the Pervasive Technology Labs (PTL) and then the Pervasive Technology Institute (PTI). This report summarizes the economic development activities of PTL, PTI, and the Research Technologies Division of University Information Technology Services (which long collaborated with PTL and is now one of the several components of PTI). These units report administratively to the Office of the Vice President for Information Technology. This report summarizes activities from the IPCRES award in 1999 to 1 June 2011.
