Introduction "Technology Information Facilitation Programme" (TIF) is one of the components of Technology Promotion, Development and Utilization (TPDU) Programme of the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR). The broad objective of the programme is to generate endogenous capacities for the development and utilization of digital information resources and provide inputs to S&T research and industrial development. In today's scenario, given the quality of connectivity, it is being strongly felt that the Programme should endeavour to strengthen the resource base of available information and provide a mechanism for optimal utilization of the resources in the country. TIF would also facilitate collaborative research among industries and institutions. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) are now internalized to the socio-economic fabric of the country. These all-pervasive technologies can be fruitfully applied to all sectors of the economy, and the community of the scientific & industrial research workers could be one of the major beneficiaries. In the recent past, public and private sector companies have made significant investments to develop infrastructural facilities including telecom networks. It however needs to be considered how best such infrastructure could be utilized for "scientific & industrial research" and how the new ICT tools are to be used for application to a variety of domains in the Indian environment. TIF is, therefore, will be implemented as a co-operative and collaborative venture and built around the existing infrastructure, wherever possible. In this the strategy would be to: Concentrate on creation of Indian S&T content Avoid duplication of efforts Ensure minimum overlapping Promote maximum utilization of existing facilities and Utilize the internet technology 2. Objectives The specific objectives of TIF programme are to: develop appropriate endogenous information capacities to support the R&D activities. support the production of local content and promote use of indigenous knowledge promote information and knowledge networking at local, regional and national levels to facilitate flow and sharing of information resources map the national S & T productivity in relation to the international trend support education, training and R & D in digital content development and utilization and promote national and international cooperation in related areas. 3. Strategies and Activities The objectives of TIF are proposed to be achieved through a set of strategies and specific activities under each strategy. The strategies and the activities under each given strategy are as listed below: Development of endogenous capacities - Promotion of content development - Industrial trend reports - Information support for industrial clusters Digital and indigenous knowledge base - National websites/ servers - Indian digital library of theses and R&D publications - Documentation of traditional knowledge and folk wisdom - Information for community - digital provide and opportunities Establishing knowledge net - Promotion of information access and sharing - Virtual systems - Electronic publishing of selected Indian S&T materials - Open archive initiatives - a web alternative to scholarly communications Mapping of national S&T productivity Education, training and R&D - Surveys and R&D studies - Manpower development programme International activities 3.1 Promotion of Content Development Indian capabilities have gained international recognition in the field of ICT, particularly in software development. India also has a large population of domain experts in every field of science and technology and almost all of them have adequate proficiency in English. This provides an enabling environment for content development to meet the national and international demands. However, this latent potential for content development is yet to be transformed into significant business opportunities. Non-availability of the requisite know-how including entrepreneurial and marketing capabilities is considered to be one of the major reasons for the current situation. Capacity development in the area of content development is therefore considered important and the institutions having the requisite infrastructure and technical competence would be assisted to take-up capacity building in content development. In particular, TIF would support specific projects on the following: Research and development in the content development, design and methodology Training and skill development programmes on all aspects of content development including the technical know-how, entrepreneurship and marketing, etc for scientists, students, retired specialists, house wives, etc Experimentation with technologies and systems for content development in Indian languages Surveys and studies for assessment of priorities in content development Setting up content development facilities leveraging the strengths of ICT, domain expertise and fresh young alumni 3.2 Industrial Trend Reports DSIR has prepared a series of industrial trend reports, though many of these are presently outdated. DSIR would provide assistance to professional institutions and experts for selectively updating of such reports which are of current interest and preparing of new ones. These reports need to be published in e-format. 3.3 Information Support for Industrial Clusters Providing Science & Technology Information support to small and medium enterprisers (SMEs) in Industrial clusters producing common range of products by leveraging the concept of virtual information system and knowledge management will be covered under TIF Programme. 3.4 National Websites/ Servers Collection, collation and hosting of nationally generated contents on Science & Technology in national websites/servers will be a major activity on creation of digital content and indigenous knowledgebase. 3.5 Indian Digital Library of Theses and R&D Publications Establishing suitable mechanism for capturing full text information of dissertations/theses and R&D reports of Government funded projects and publishing such material the same through electronic media will be a part of TIF Programme. 3.6 Documentation of Traditional Knowledge and Folk Wisdom Significant efforts are already underway in several institutions to document and capture the essence of traditional knowledge existing in different societies across the country. These efforts have to be expanded and the knowledge base existing in different communities has to be systematically documented and organised into databases. 3.7 Information for Community- Digital Provide and Opportunities The diffusion of ICT for community good so as to reduce digital divide and enhance digital opportunities for all is an activity proposed to be pursued under the TIF Programme. It includes: Systematic documentation of efforts and experiments for bridging the digital divide Identification of best practices and lessons after analyses of various efforts/experiments Linking the technology developers with the users of information at the lowest levels Experimentation with various modes of contents for information kiosks 3.8 Promotions of Information Access and Sharing A number of Scientific Institutions in the country have been engaged in the development of databases on their subject domains. Similarly, several scientific libraries in the country possess invaluable collection of scientific materials. The TIF proposes to promote the scientific organisation of these resources and introduction of data sharing mechanisms or activities. 3.9 Virtual Systems The concept of virtual information systems has wide applications in a variety of situations in R&D and academics. It could be a knowledge network, connecting the information resource base of a set of institutions. The products and services could be shared by participating institutions and also by those not contributing to the system. It could be a virtual laboratory networking several specialized laboratories. Similarly, virtual teaching facilities would also be promoted by TIFP. 3.10 Electronic Publishing of Selected Indian S&T materials Indian journals, barring a few exceptions, suffer from poor visibility and readership. This malady is disincentive to the Indian S&T workers to publish their significant contributions in Indian journals. Publishers also face problems in making upfront investments on printing, dispatch and storage of back runs. Electronic publishing can therefore help improving the situation. The following activities are contemplated under TIF. Publish select Indian journals on CD-Rom and make a worldwide pitch to market them Create a website to host electronic version of select Indian journals and also the back issues of those Indian journals with high impact factor 3.11 Open Archive Initiatives (OAI) - a web alternative to scholarly communications There has been a growing realization that with the growth of internet use, the printed journals may no more be able to survive as a primary means of scholarly communication. The electronic medium offers faster, wider and cheaper means of communication as compared to the printed medium. It is therefore proposed to support Open Archive Initiative of journal articles published in India. Academic and Research Institutions would be encouraged to set up institutional or national open archives in particular disciplines - covering disciplines in which India has strength like mathematics, statistics, and geo-science, etc. 3.12 Mapping of National S&T productivity The health of Indian science will be regularly studied through the National Mapping of Science programme. Use of Scientometric techniques for application on patent information will be explored. Efforts will be made to develop new techniques and tools of analysis. In order to give a fillip to the programme, it is proposed to establish a common facility for Scientometric studies. The full potential of Scientometrics remains to be realized in India. The National Scientometric Facility has to subscribe to the data sets and procure required hardware and software for analysis. Standardization of data elements, synthesis of results from different databases, training and other such activities of integration and accumulation can then be taken up on a cost-effective basis. The skill base hitherto limited has to be enhanced through elaborate manpower development. 3.13 Surveys and R&D Studies It is necessary to undertake studies and surveys to identify user needs assess new technologies, and to develop new tools and techniques. In addition, it is also necessary to take up sector specific studies to assess the implications and impact of IT and media convergence. Such studies would help to evolve policy parameters to assess the sectoral implications of ICT, evolve new indicators to measure the changes, to explore new opportunities and so on. 3.14 Education & Training The Human Resources Development activities would target two sets of professionals -- information users, and information managers/handlers. Through the MPD programme, it is intended to raise the intellectual skills of knowledge workers to a level at which the beneficiaries would be effective at their own initiatives. In order to raise the skills, DSIR propose to take up both formal and informal programmes on the following lines. Promote skill development of information practitioners and subject specialists in new information resources and use of tools for knowledge management. Annual national conference to facilitate interaction among information service providers, Information users and information industry. Organize a series of annual international workshop on IT and exploitation of S&T information resources in developing countries Establish a regular and long-term training facility on Knowledge Management in national institutions to provide quality education to students in preparing them to take up jobs such as digital librarians, content managers, information economists, human-computer interface specialists, etc. Undertake User Education on various sources of information for practicing S&T workers. Publish an information bulletin to disseminate information on new technologies, and research results, etc. 4. Proposals Eligible for Assistance Although each research project is important for national development, the DSIR under its Industrial R&D and Technological Information Facilitation (TIF) Programme provides assistance only for those projects which have a direct relevance to the programme objectives. The activities listed in the previous sections and in particular information content related activities would be given priority in providing assistance under the programme. 5. Institutions Eligible for Assistance Professional/research institutions with qualified engineers, scientists, information professionals, statisticians and economists and belonging to one of the following categories are eligible for assistance under the scheme.

The persons employed in the project shall belong to the host institution or shall be on an appropriate contract with the host institution. The conditions of their service will be governed in accordance with the rules and orders of the institution. The Government of India will in no way be responsible for the continuance of the services or absorption of such staff just because the Sponsor agrees to defray the part of the expenditure towards salaries and wages. The Department of Scientific & Industrial Research (DSIR) reserves the right to terminate the grant at any stage if it is convinced that o the grant has not been properly utilized o appropriate progress has not been made and o the project is not being carried out as per the terms and conditions and/ or as per the nature and scope of the work as defined in the approved project proposal. International travel is not permissible under the project. The institution will provide the required infrastructure facilities like accommodation, furniture, computer, library, laboratory equipments, communication facilities and secretariat services. The overheads for providing these facilities will be normally 15% of the project cost or the percentage fixed by the Government from time to time. The Project Director and other experts mentioned in the project proposals should not be changed without the prior approval of the Ministry. For permanent and semi-permanent assets, acquired wholly or partly out of the grant, an audited record, in the form of a register shall be maintained by the Executing Agency. The term "assets" means: (i) all immovable property; and (ii) movable property of a capital nature where the value exceeds Rs 10,000/-. The grant will not be utilized for construction of any building or permanent asset like machinery required for augmenting general production facilities. All assets including equipment acquired and prototypes fabricated from the grant will be the property of Government of India and should not without the prior sanction of the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, be disposed of, or utilized for purposes other than those for which the grant has been sanctioned. The Organization should maintain a separate account for the project. The grant should be kept in a bank account and the interest earned should be reported to the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research. The interest thus earned will be treated as a credit to the organization and will be adjusted towards further installments of the grant. The Controller and Audit General will have the right to access to the books of accounts of the organization for grants received from the government. If the Principal Investigator wishes to leave the organization where the project is based, the organization/ investigator will inform the same to DSIR and in consultation, evolve steps to ensure successful completion of the project, before relieving the project investigator. The Investigator should submit five copies of the complete and detailed report of the work done by them on the project before his/her leaving the organization. The know-how generated from the project would be the property of Government of India (GOI) and any receipts by way of sale of know-how, utilization of know-how for production, royalties, etc shall belong to GOI. The GOI may at its discretion allow a portion of such receipts to be retained by the organization.
