Use nano-technology to create appropriate knowledge grid
Abstract:
President APJ Abdul Kalam said on Wednesday that in order to provide cost effective quality products using nano-technology to the global society, “we need to connect all the relevant institutions participating in this mission using the high bandwidth fibre optics network into a Knowledge Grid specially established for this mission of India and partnering nations.”
(Ed.'s note: if anyone thinks that India is not serious about nanotechnology, then they are not paying attention to the news.)
