CSL is one of three laboratories at PARC that do computational research (the other two are SPL and ISTL); CSL focuses on the hardware and software "below" what the user sees. CSL's research covers hardware architecture, networks (IP, IPng, IP Multicast, radio, infrared, and ATM), multimedia hardware and infrastructure, programming environments, high-performance printing and copying, collaborative multimedia, computer science theory, mobile hardware and middleware, and ubiquitous computing.
(This is the lab within which ethernet, workstations, personal computing, the mice/windows interface, etc. were invented.)
