(for example, differences in network performance for developed and
developing countries)
· concrete strategic alternatives
· innovative technological tools
· e-contents licensing issues
to support scientists working in remote areas and
having low-bandwidth, or expensive access to on-line database
services and the Internet.

These will be compiled and printed in one volume for the Round Table
as well as displayed on-line.
