  • A Framework for Comparative Analysis of National Knowledge Networks in UK and India
    A Framework for Comparative Analysis of National Knowledge Networks in UK and India Rekha Jain Manjari Singh W.P. No. 2015-03-29 March 2015 The main objective of the working paper series of the IIMA is to help faculty members, research staff and doctoral students to speedily share their research findings with professional colleagues and test their research findings at the pre-publication stage. IIMA is committed to maintain academic freedom. The opinion(s), view(s) and conclusion(s) expressed in the working paper are those of the authors and not that of IIMA. INDIAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT AHMEDABAD-380 015 INDIA A Framework for Comparative Analysis of National Knowledge Networks in UK and India Rekha Jain Manjari Singh Executive Chair, IITCOE Personnel & Industrial Relations Area Professor, Information Systems Area Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] Phone: +91-79-6632-4914 Phone: +91-79-6632-4822 Abstract Recognizing that national competitiveness depends on the availability and quality of national Information and Communication Technology networks that support higher education (HE) and research, many countries have developed such infrastructure for their publicly funded HE and research institutes. The National Knowledge Network (NKN), India set up in 2009-10, and the Joint Academic Network (JANET), UK set up in 1984 are examples. These national knowledge networks are embedded within the larger context of HE and research institutions and ICT infrastructure in the country. For an emerging economy like India, effectiveness of NKN is important as resource availability for investment in such a network has to compete with other developmental priorities.

  • An Offline Alternative for Aadhaar-Based Biometric
    An offline alternative for Aadhaar-based biometric authentication Subhashis Banerjee Subodh Sharma Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Delhi New Delhi 110016 August 11, 2018 The decision on the constitutionality of Aadhaar1 by the supreme court remains a matter of speculation, but it has become abundantly clear that most of the use cases for Aadhaar based biometric authentication (ABBA) have turned out to be deeply problematic. That the use of biometrics as an authentication factor is con- ceptually flawed has been pointed out by many [Agrawal et al., 2017]. Biometrics are not secret information and are hence open to fraud. Further, the uncertainties in biometric matching, because of decision-making using a threshold score2 which may lead to false negatives (referred to as ‘probabilistic’ by the petitioners in the supreme court), make them unsuitable because of the risks of causing exclusion and denial of rights in welfare [Dreze` et al., 2017, Abraham et al., 2018, Kotwal and Ramaswami, 2018]. The requirement of reliable online connectivity compounds the problem. In fact, the state’s assurance that “nobody will be denied their entitlements because of biometric matching failure” does not pass muster. It is vacuous because there is no clear specification as to when the promise will apply and how such a false-negative set can be distinguished from the spurious attempts. Biometrics may only be good for de-duplication3, and can perhaps also be used for identity 1Aadhaar or Unique Identification number (UID) is a 12-digit individual identification number issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) on behalf of the Government of India.

  • Apan 43: India 2017 Learning Experience
    APAN 43: INDIA 2017 LEARNING EXPERIENCE Firstly, i would like to thank TEMDEC for inviting me to this wonderful meeting at the beautiful city of New Delhi, India. The meeting was held at the India Habitat Center (IHC) from 12th to 17th February 2017. The event is a 6 days event and I had joined the Medical Working Group Session. The event consists of preparation and testing on 12th, medical technology related session from 13th -16th and Engineering session from 16th to 17th February 2017. This is my fourth participation in APAN meeting after APAN 40 (Kuala Lumpur), APAN 41 (Manila) and APAN 42 (Hong Kong). I was invited as trainer, presenter and also as chairperson for the Technology and Engineering session. We had started with our program since the first day (12 Feb 2017) for setup and test the video conferencing equipment at the main venue. I had the opportunity to explore and know in detail the AV setup at the venue and hands on experience working with venue engineer from India, TEMDEC engineer and other trainer to setup the system and test as preparation for the live event next day. I was given an opportunity to co chair the Technology session with Mr Ti Chuang from National Taiwan University and Mr Dinesh from ILBS, India for the gamification technology and join view software. The topic for gamification was select by me and i had invited a speaker from Malaysia for the presentation. It was an eye opening to all participants that the technology can also be applied to medical and telemedicine activity as well.
