There are therefore, two main research fields. One focusing on the development and application of information technologies and the other on land studies and both from the point of view of social development.The two centres housed in the building have very different origins and setups. The Andalusian Centre for Information Technology Research (known by its Spanish acronym CAITI) comprises the groups belonging to The Software Engineering Research Group (GISUM in Spanish) of the Department of Computer Science and Programming Languages, itself part of the Higher Technical School of Computer Engineering. The University of Málaga approved the creation of The Institute of Technology and Software Engineering (ITIS in Spanish) based in this building.
