The International Computer Science Institute (ICSI) is an independent, non-profit research organization located in Berkeley, California, USA. Since its founding in 1988, ICSI has maintained an affiliation with the University of California, Berkeley, where several of its members hold faculty appointments. ICSI's research activities include Internet architecture, network security, network routing, speech and speaker recognition, spoken and text-based natural language processing, and biological system modeling.[1]
The Institute is led by Professor Nelson Morgan, head of the Speech group. SIGCOMM Award winner Scott Shenker heads the Networking Research Group, Turing award winner Richard Karp heads the Algorithms group, and Professor Srini Narayanan heads the Artificial Intelligence group. Other notable ICSI scientists include Vern Paxson, who previously chaired the Internet Research Task Force, IEEE Internet Award winner Sally Floyd, connectionist pioneer Jerry Feldman, Professor Charles J. Fillmore and Collin F. Baker who are leading the FrameNet semantic parsing project, and Dilek Hakkani-Tür, working on spoken language processing.
Mark Handley founded the XORP open source router software project while at ICSI.
