This article explores e-commerce in India focusing on Pan Asia Networking (PAN) training and its effects, such as the ‘India Shop’ business model.Item Pan Asia ICT R&D : brief review of research funded by the PanAsia RnD grants programme(Southbend Penang, Penang, MY, 2002) IDRC. Regional Office for Southeast and East Asia; Chin, Saik YoonThis publication tells the story of six of the Pan Asia Research and Development programme's awardees; their accomplishments, work and target beneficiaries. Some lessons are emerging from the projects funded so far which may help to establish and define the relationship between new technologies and development. Pan Asia Networking (PAN) ICT R&D Grants Programme aims to build institutional research capacity in the developing countries of the Asia Pacific region, in the area of Internet networking.Item Evaluating policy influence of ICTs for rural areas : the MSSRF information villages research project(Evalnet, Johannesburg, ZA, 2004) Evalnet: Evaluation for Sustainable Development in Africa; Ofir, Z.; Kriel, L.Item Distance learning technologies : deploying Canadian and Southern technology engines to build an Asian research network(Athabasca University, Edmonton, AB, CA, 2004-08) Baggaley, J.P.Item Technical report for the Digital Review of Asia Pacific, phase I (Dec. 4, 2001 - Dec. 4, 2005)(ORBICOM, Montréal, QC, CA, 2005) OrbicomItem Digital review of Asia Pacific, 2005 / 2006(IDRC, Ottawa, ON, CA, 2005) Chin Saik Yoon; Akhtar, Shahid; Charron, Claude-Yves; Ng Lee Hoon, MariaItem Software for development : a documentary and case studies; technical report(UNDP Asia Pacific Development Information Programme (UNDP-APDIP), Bangkok, TH, 2006) UNDP Asia Pacific Development Information Programme (UNDP-APDIP)Item South and South East Asian Gender Evaluation Methodology (GEM) Workshop : report(2006) Association for Progressive Communications; Garcia Ramilo, Chat; Cinco, CheekayItem Hazard warnings in Sri Lanka : challenges of internetworking with common alerting protocol(ISCRAM, Brussels, BE, 2007) Gow, Gordon; Anderson, Peter; Waidyanatha, NuwanThere is a growing call for the use of open source content standards for all-hazards, all-media alert and notification systems. This paper presents findings on the implementation of Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) as a content standard for a community-based hazard information network in Sri Lanka. CAP is being deployed as part of the HazInfo project, which has established last-mile networking capability for 32 tsunami-affected villages in Sri Lanka in order to study the suitability of various Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) for a standards-based community hazard information system. Results to date suggest that the basic internetworking arrangement at lower technical layers has proven to be reasonably robust and reliable but that a key challenge remains in the upper layers of application software and content provision. This is evident in the apparent difficulties faced when implementing CAP messaging over multiple last-mile systems that include commercial satellite and terrestrial network technologies (C/L/X-Band, GSM, and CDMA in modes of voice and text). Lessons learned from silent tests and live exercises point to several key bottlenecks in the system where the integrity of CAP messages is compromised due to problems associated with software interoperability or direct human intervention. The wider implication of this finding is that content standards by themselves are not sufficient to support appropriate and timely emergency response activities. Those working with content standards for hazard information systems must consider closely the interoperability issues at various layers of interconnectivity.
