DCIF technology focus area
Introduction:
Digital communication India forum (DCIF) is non-partisan, technology driven, socially sensitive and independent thinking-oriented forum from india with global outlook.
Communications and computation technologies are singularly playing the role of most significant change agent. There is challenge of keeping this technology area under watch to help positive change and avoid harmful impact on society. The ICT, cognitive and communication technologies require continuous debate and adoption and evangelism, regulation, awareness and control.
Scope of the Document:
This document is capturing the relevant technology area for conferences, deliberations, contributions and learning by DCIF. It is expected that DCIF activities will be planned around the technology areas proposed in this document.
Technology Area:
Technology area to be broadly focused for year 2023-24 (from April 2023 to March 2024)
- Quantum Technologies for computing and communications
Quantum technologies present a tectonic shift and big disruption in science, technology and innovation.
- Health care and well-being
There is a game changing impact of technology in healthcare and well-being industry and it should be priority for DCIF to promote digital technologies for rural health and well-being including remote surgery and specialist expert intervention.
