Creative Connectivity: Ideas for the Inexpensive Delivery of Internet Services to African Universities

by Cliff Missen

This presentation will demonstrate the variety of ways that universities can implement bandwidth strategies to reduce their Internet connectivity costs and deliver more services to their campuses.

Focusing on a three-pronged approach to improving Internet connectivity:

§       Bandwidth procurement
§       Bandwidth management
§       Bandwidth augmentation

This presentation will show how each of these approaches -- individually -- has the potential to deliver practical results to universities, but -- taken together -- can multiply their impact and create resoundingly good results.
