Our research area, Information and System Society (ISS), is a very exciting and continuously developing area, based on the rapid progress of high-functional information processing devices, broadband networks, huge storage devices, and various types of new sensors. On the other hand, young Japanese nowadays have tendency to move away from science and technology. Also more and more industries are transferring overseas.
These social phenomena threaten the future of Japan as a world leader in science and technology. Amid such situation, one of the important missions of ISS is to steadily create a futuristic research area. For this purpose I suggest the following things: (1) supporting young researchers to form new research groups to develop new fields, (2) constructing a long-term research environment for basic research, (3) creating a system where young researchers can get proper support and advice from experienced researchers, and (4) actively dispatching information about ISS. By doing these, I hope I would contribute to the
further development of ISS.
