The University of Adelaide formed the CDCIN in 2006 in recognition of complex systems’ growing importance to Australia's defence and security. The centre provides the nation’s defence sector with:
- advanced defence communication and information networking engineering, research and development
- an independent source of network and system design and analysis expertise, linking academic research to defence industry capability needs
- an ongoing defence communications networking education and training resource.
Our success in reliably delivering this independent capability is reflected in our numerous collaborations. These include with:
- Defence Science and Technology Organisation

- Australian Army, Air Force and Navy
- BAE Systems Australia
- Cisco
