description

Indo-French cooperation has existed for several decades, and has flourished in the recent period, with a number of flagship programmes and cross-border schemes in science, technology and management. Virtual universities refer to both conventional campus-based (hybrid and brick-and-mortar) universities offering online courses, and purely virtual universities with all their activities delivered online via the Internet. A virtual university is involved as a direct provider of learning opportunities and uses the Internet to deliver its programmes and courses while receiving tuition support. We propose in this ultimate chapter an innovative architecture for an Indo-French knowledge management system with the objective to secure a competitive advantage in the knowledge economy.
