This workshop is the result of several conversations with faculty, students, and industry personnel on improving the state of technology and research in the developing world.
Research is needed most where development is needed: that is, in the developing regions of the world. Unfortunately, here is where R&D is relatively lacking. On the positive side, activity of industries has been increasing in regions such as India, China, etc. in the recent past. This workshop seeks to bring together the pockets of research excellence, to foster interaction among them, and to spread the reach of this excellence.
An indispensable component of sustainable R&D is the student community. Therefore, an important goal of this workshop is to encourage student participation. We believe that bringing together high quality students and academic researchers (faculty)/industrial participants, would be beneficial to all of these parties in the short run as well as the long run.
