Summary
COMIMSA (Corporación Mexicana de Investigación en Materiales)
education research legacy
COMIMSA — Corporación Mexicana de Investigación en Materiales — a Mexican
public research centre in the CONACYT system, based in Saltillo, Coahuila. It was
created at the end of 1991 from the former Instituto Mexicano de Investigaciones
Siderúrgicas.
What it's used for
- The institute's own campus and research network. Reverse DNS in the space resolves under
comimsa.net.mx, with workstation-style hostnames — an institutional network, not connectivity sold to third parties. - Announces about 1.3k IPv4 addresses across a few small LACNIC and legacy blocks (
200.23.96.0/24and neighbours, plus192.100.204.0/24).
Notable
- Research and academic address space. COMIMSA works on applied metallurgy — materials research, welding, design and manufacturing — and runs postgraduate programmes alongside its industrial laboratory and certification services.
- Its
S.A. de C.V.legal form makes the name read like an ordinary company, but it is a centro público de investigación operating under Mexico's national science council.
Interesting
- The ASN dates to 1996, only a few years after the institute was founded — early for a Mexican research body to be running its own autonomous system.
