The
development of modern information and communication technologies
requires
changing information infrastructures of higher education and
research institutions. More than ever, agreements, cooperation,
recommendations and standards are
required. The German
Initiative for
Network Information (DINI) is founded in order to coordinate
and to
foster the handling of these changes. DINI is committed to developing
information infrastructures and thus improving information and
communication
services. By
establishing agreements with and by the distribution of tasks
among the infrastructure facilities the range of services can be improved significantly.
