Abstract | Worldwide activity on the development of the Information Society is being heavily hampered by the difficulty of integrating e-Infrastructures in different continents with the exception of North America. We are proposing to run a Feasibility Study to build a state-of-the-art communication infrastructure connecting Europe and Latin America, with the further objective of facilitate and trigger the creation of a private consortium with possible minor contributions from public sources to put the infrastructure into reality. We propose to perform a whole range of activities to this extent: - Technical feasibility study. - Assessment of the market and of its perspectives from the commercial and the points of view - Clarification of the financial framework. Other activities will be directed to maintain the interest in the project high and to try and create a kernel for the consortium that will have to build and operate the cable. |
