Yahoo announced Friday that it has established a research lab with the University of California at Berkeley. Yahoo Research Labs-Berkeley will begin operations in August and concentrate on new technologies for search, social and mobile media. Marc Davis, UC Berkeley professor of information management and systems, will head the new lab.
Yahoo is seeking to use the Berkeley lab to leverage its efforts in building the next generation of search applications and technologies to aid users in finding, using and sharing information, regardless of where they are logged onto the Internet.
