Thursday Lunch Host Speaker Series
Buenos Aires, April 3-8 2016
Talk Abstract
As the IETF takes place for the first time in South America we take the opportunity to reflect on the challenges that the developing parts of the world face in terms of Internet deployment and the use and appropriation of different technologies.
Not all the working assumptions underlying new protocol and technology development that are true in the developed world can be applied in the same way in other regions.
In this talk we will give a brief overview of some of these challenges, illustrate ongoing work that the IETF is undertaking in this regard and share some relevant experiences from the region with the audience.
