The effectiveness of the Internet as a public resource depends upon interoperability, innovation and decentralized participation worldwide. - Mozilla Manifesto

Mozilla Research is a collaborative effort to explore long term, end-to-end systems challenges that will define the open web of the future. Examples include:

• VM performance and security
• Open video and multimedia formats
• Better Public Key Infrastructure
• Web application security
• Security and user interface
• Better transport protocols

The idea is not to target products, but rather the challenges the whole web will face in 1 – 4 years. Mozilla Research is a virtual organization where bright minds can share ideas, experiments and code.
