| Abstract | The EU and India have established an extensive Information Society dialogue. On the research side, six priority sectors were highlighted at the occasion of the last EU-India Information Society Forum: EUROINDIA 2006. Internet security, next generation mobile wireless, migration from IPv4 to IPv6, languages technologies, Open Source software and high capacity research and education network (e.g. possible connection of the European network GEANT to its Indian counterpart ERNET) are the main topics of such dialogue. ERNET, the educational and Research Network in India has deployed nationwide high speed networks to cover all universities and public research institutes. According to the new government policy, the broadband is of high priority along with IPv6 technology. With 6CHOICE Proposal, the close co-operation between ERNET and European GEANT and GRID network is planned. 6CHOICE project supports such co-operation through joint network interconnection, service planning and the experiments will be facilitated across ERNET and GEANT linked universities and research institutes. This will be complemented with number of workshops to be held and conducting workshops to different level of target audience and complemented with training events with experts involved. 6CHOICE will complement the implementation of the Framework Programme across Europe and India for future Community research and technological development policy activities including monitoring and assessment activities. In particular, the project will involve conferences, seminars, studies and analysis, working groups and expert groups, operational support and dissemination, information and communication activities, or a combination of these, as appropriate in each case. The activities proposed encourage and facilitate the participation of small research teams, newly developed and remote research centres in the activities of the Communication Network Development scheme. |
