The Computer System Laboratory is responsible for the computer system field for both undergraduate and graduate programs at Kyoto Institute of Technology.

In October 1990, Haruo Niimi joined as an associate professor from Kyoto University. He began focusing on research and education mainly related to core subjects of information engineering. In June 1992, Kiyoshi Shibayama also joined as a professor from Kyoto University. In February 1995, Hiroaki Hirata joined as a research associate from Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. In April 1998, Niimi moved to the Faculty of Engineering at Kyoto Sangyo University as professor. In March 1999, Hirata was promoted to associate professor. In September 2001, Atsushi Nunome who had been a member of this lab for about six years, was employed as a research associate. Prof. Shibayama retired in March 2016. In January 2019, Nunome was promoted to associate professor. Hirata was promoted to professor in March 2021.

After Shibayama's arrival, laboratory facilities such as workstations and servers were set up. Recently, the CAD system for LSI design, hardware description language, and a support system for designing computer architecture have become available. This research environment helps us to concentrate on research topics such as computer architecture, computer systems, and parallel/distributed processing.
