The scope of the symposium is to understand, together with researchers, developers, users and policy makers, how European and Indian e-Infrastructure links can evolve.

Representatives from the Secretary of State for Education, EC Delegation to India and from the Ministry for Communications will open and attend the symposium.

Topics discussed include, but are not limited to:

  • Grid Computing
  • Wireless Networks for distance education
  • Content creation for Distance Learning (Health, Education, Science & Technology, Bio informatics, Agriculture, etc.)
  • Security, management and dissemination of content for distance learning
