Strengthening Internet Connectivity in Eastern Europe: Insights from the SilkHighway Project

The Fourth CEENET Workshop in Chisinau focused on the challenges and objectives of the SilkHighway project. It highlighted the high costs of connectivity, increasing government control over the Internet, and poor collaboration among countries. Key discussions included the need for National Research and Education Networks (NREN) with necessary licenses for management, and the deployment of DVB technology. The workshop showcased the significant role of Cisco and DESY Hamburg as hubs in enhancing academic networking, while addressing issues like resource scarcity in educational materials and the advancement of distance education.
