INRIA does both theoretical and applied research in computer science. In the process, it has produced many widely used programs. Indeed, it has designed CaML, a language from the ML family, and developed both the Caml Light and OCaml implementations. It has also developed Bigloo, a Scheme implementation, SmartEiffel, a free Eiffel compiler, Scilab, a numerical computation software package similar to MATLAB,and Esterel a programming language for State Automata.
It has 6 research units:
- INRIA Futurs (Lille, Saclay, Bordeaux) http://www-futurs.inria.fr/
- INRIA Lorraine (LORIA - in association with CNRS and local universities) http://www.loria.fr/INRIA/
- INRIA Rennes (IRISA - in association with CNRS and local universities) http://www.irisa.fr/
- INRIA Rhône-Alpes (near Grenoble) http://www.inrialpes.fr/
- INRIA Rocquencourt (a suburb of Paris) http://www-rocq.inria.fr/ ()
- INRIA Sophia-Antipolis (near Nice) http://www-sop.inria.fr/
and also contributes to academic research teams outside of those centres.
