description | Spectacular developments in computer network technology and applications are imminent, but European research and industry are unprepared for them. The gigabit testbeds and the NREN plans in the USA and technology developments in Japan are a clear challenge. Europe has a complex pattern of national and international research networks which provide valuable services for their existing users. Evolution of these networks is hindered by a variety of regulatory, political, economic, and technical barriers to progress, especially the lack of political focus and the small scale of industrial involvement. This paper analyses the situation and makes recommendations for the way forward. |
