The result is THE authoritative source on the topic, providing a vast amount of insider knowledge unavailable elsewhere. It is of interest to every scientist and a must-have for all network developers as well as agencies dealing with the Net ● Contributions from GRNET people.

Target 3: Connect All Scientific and Research Centres with Icts1
CONNECT ALL SCIENTIFIC AND RESEARCH CENTRES WITH ICTs Target 3: Connect all scientific and research centres with ICTs Target 3: Connect all scientific and research 1 centres with ICTs Executive summary In today’s information society, the ways in which knowledge is created, processed, diffused and applied have been revolutionized – in part through rapid developments in ICTs (UNESCO, 2013). While the ICT revolution has not occurred at a uniform pace in all regions, to a large extent it has led to the creation of dynamic networks, cross-border collaborative processes, and internationalization of research and higher education. In line with the goal of making the benefits of ICTs available for all, Target 3 aims to connect all scientific and research centres with ICTs. The ICTs defined by the Target 3 indicators include broadband Internet2 and connections to national research and education networks (NRENs). Data from multiple sources indicate that the target of “all” scientific and research centres has not been achieved, although significant progress has been made according to the three indicators for Target 3. Indicator 3.1 focuses on connecting scientific and research centres with broadband Internet. Where data were available, connectivity was found to be high – typically 100 per cent – but there were a few countries that have yet to achieve this target. The conclusions that can be drawn from Indicator 3.1 were limited because of the low data availability and it is recommended that this indicator be removed. Indicator 3.2 measures whether a country has one or more NRENs and what their bandwidth is. Significant progress has been made in increasing the total number of NRENs, regional NRENs and countries with a NREN. -

Higher capacity connections fostering ever-closer collaboration between scientists, academics are being matched by a focus on end-to-end services to ensure that and researchers across the globe. This commitment to driving users receive consistent, multi-domain performance to meet their inclusion of researchers wherever they are located and whatever needs, wherever they are located. Working with NRENs, many of discipline they work in benefits the whole of society. The these services will be introduced during 2011. innovation collaboration delivers is pushing back the boundaries of knowledge across disciplines as varied as medicine, biology, Moving forward to 2011, in these uncertain times it becomes ever physics and the arts. more important to continue to demonstrate both the innovation GÉANT delivers, along with the value for money it achieves. However, before I introduce the highlights of the year, I must first European NRENs and DANTE will together continue to demonstrate pay tribute to our colleague and DANTE chairman Klaus Ullmann, this value they bring both to the research community and the wider who sadly passed away on 25 March 2011. -
