VL Strategies: Computing literacy & Tools


To VLs be widely adopted in less developed regions for carrying out distance collaboration, research experimentation or any other creative activity, adequate computing literacy must be supported in the academic community of countries that are new to the Internet.

VLs require also tools featuring the most advanced techniques of, e.g.,

  • instrument control and data sharing,
  • electronic collaboration,
whereas their administration need to be simplified.
